• Fish is not suited for cooking in the fondue pot, because fish falls apart easily
when cooked.
• The optimum suited temperature settings and cooking times for your dishes
depend on your liking as well as the type and consistency of the ingredients.
However, you should not over-cook your food. Most types of food may be bet-
ter, when they are still juicy. Most fruit and vegetables should be somewhat cris-
py.
• Do not let the ingredients fall into the hot liquid in the fondue pot. Whenever
possible, use the provided fondue forks that can be fixed in the forks holder of
the fondue pot. Nevertheless, we recommend to hold a small ladle at hand for
removing pieces of food that fell off the fondue fork.
• The grilling plate is suited best for cooking beef, pork, lamb, and poultry, as
well as fish fillets and seafood. Even slices of some types of fruit and vegetables
may be delicate when cooked on the grilling plate.
• Tougher cuts of meat (e.g. shoulder) should be marinated for a few hours or
overnight in a marinade with wine or vinegar to help break down the connective
tissue. Remove the bones before grilling.
• If using a marinade recipe or pre-marinated meat from your meat retailer, drain
excess marinade and dab your meat with kitchen paper before placing it on the
grill or cooking it in oil as fondue.
• When removing fish from the grilling plate, use the provided grill shovels or a
heat-resistant plastic spatula to support the food, because fish falls apart easily.
This is the reason, why fish is in most cases not suited for fondue.
• Cut cheese in thin, fitting stripes and, in the raclette dishes, place it in the raclette level
below the grilling plate. The stripes may not protrude the rim of the raclette dishes.
• Depending on the type of cheese, the raclette dishes can be used for pre-heating
cheese or keeping cheese hot on the grilling plate. In this case, the grilling plate
should be set to a low temperature.
• Avoid overheating your food, when using the grilling plate for pre-heating the
raclette dishes. Delicate sauces (e.g. some types of cheese, chocolate, Hol-
landaise) should not be heated on the grilling plate to avoid over-heating. This
holds especially, when high temperature values are selected for gilling.
CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE
Temperature and cooking time depend on your liking and the thickness, type, and
consistency of your food. However, do not select too high temperature values to
avoid burning.
