Oven timer operation
The oven timer (only ventilated
1st
Oven) offers you the
following features:
1. Time of Day
2. Automatic Cooking
3. Minute Minder
Automatic cooking
The main oven can be controlled automatically.
Guidance on automatic cooking
1. Select foods which will take the same time to cook.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or
is just about to finish cooking on your return to the oven.
This will ensure the food has not cooled down and does
not require reheating before serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into
the oven, ideally straight from the refrigerator. Frozen
meat and poultry should be thawed thoroughly before
it is put in the oven.
4. Warm food should never be placed in the oven if there is
to be a delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat
and vegetables should be cooked as soon as possible.
5. Dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat,
for example Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked
automatically if there is to be a delay period.
6. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow
method, so that the delay period is kept to a minimum.
7. On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in
certain foods (ie poultry, joints, etc) the delayed start
should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during
the delay period, so it is best to add these ingredients
just before serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating
in fat or tossing in water to which lemon juice has been
added, prior to placing food in the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to
prevent boiling over.
11. Food should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a
container to prevent the loss of liquid during cooking.
Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
