COOKING ADVICE
STERILIZATION
Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in
full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in
the following way:
a . Set the switch to position .
b . Set the thermostat knob to position 185
°C and preheat the oven .
c . Fill the dripping pan with hot water .
d . Set the jars onto the dripping pan making
sure they do not touch each other and
the door and set the thermostat knob to
position 135 °C .
When sterilization has begun, that is, when
the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn
off the oven and let cool .
REGENERATION
Set the switch to position and the
thermostat knob to position 150° C .
Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with
a few drops of water and put into the
oven for about 10 minutes at the highest
temperature .
ROASTING
To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary
to remember:
•
that it is advisable to maintain a
temperature between 180 and 200 °C .
•
that the cooking time depends on the
quantity and the type of foods .
OVEN COOKING
Before introducing the food, preheat the
oven to the desired temperature .
For a correct preheating operation, it is
advisable to remove the tray from the oven
and introduce it together with the food,
when the oven has reached the desired
temperature .
Check the cooking time and turn off the
oven 5 minutes before the theoretical time
to recuperate the stored heat .
SIMULTANEOUS COOKING OF
DIFFERENT FOODS
The FAN consents a simultaneous
heterogeneous cooking of different foods .
Different foods such as fish, cake and
meat can be cooked together without
mixing the smells and flavours together.
This is possible since the fats and vapours
are oxidized while passing through the
electrical element and therefore are not
deposited onto the foods .
The only precaution to follow are:
•
The cooking temperatures of the
different foods must be as close to as
possible, with a maximum difference
of 20° - 25 °C .
•
The introduction of the different dishes
in the oven must be done at different
times in relation to the cooking times
of each one .
The time and energy saved with this type of
cooking is obvious .
USE OF THE GRILL
Leave to warm up for approximately 5
minutes with the door closed .
Place the food inside positioning the rack
as near as possible to the grill .
Insert the drip pan under the rack to
collect the cooking juices .
Grill with the oven door closed.
Do not grill for longer than 30 minutes
at any one time (Grilling for longer than
the reccomended time may mean the
appliance overheats).
Caution: the oven door becomes very
hot during operation. Keep children well
out of reach.
