Note!
1. When in operation, the appliance must not
be left unattended, as certain parts of the co -
oker may become very hot. Keep children well
away!
2. In ceramic-enamel ovens, dishes must not be
placed on the highest level [5].
11.9 Oven use
For baking cakes, traditional metal cake tins may •
be used as well as Teflon, ceramic, glass or alu -
minium foil cake trays (fig. 11.9.1). The most uni -
versal are metal tins due to their various shapes
and application. Before first use, all metal cake tins
must be baked in a well-heated oven to remove
the smell.
Fill the tins 2/3 full of dough, leaving enough place
•
for it to rise.
Ceramic, glass, enamelled steel and cast-iron co
- •
okware with heat-resistant handles may be used
(fig. 11.9.2) for roasting meat.
Before putting a cake into the oven, the oven must
•
be pre-heated.
During baking the dough should be heated even
- •
ly. This can be done by choosing the or
function.
If the dough outer layer is too brown, next time pla
- •
ce the cake tin on a lower level in the oven, set a
lower temperature, and allow the dough to bake
longer.
If the dough bottom is too brown, next time place •
the cake tin on a higher level in the oven and set a
lower temperature.
If you place dough in the overheated oven, the cake
•
may be doughy or fail to rise. If the dough stays in
the oven too long, it may dry out or the outer layer
may become too brown.
When selecting the baking time and temperature
•
take into account the weight and consistency of the
pastry.
Place utensils with food at any level of the oven, •
depending on the used function.
Observation and experience help in choosing the
•
best level, temperature and oven function for a par -
ticular dish.
It is recommended to start the first baking with me - •
dium temperatures, according to the recipe, and
then adjust the temperature to suit the needs the
next time. If baked in lower temperatures, the cake
becomes evenly brown all over its surface.
In order to check whether the cake is baked, it sho
- •
uld be pierced with a thin wooden rod a few minu -
tes before switching off the oven. The cake is ready
if it does not stick to the rod. After baking the cake
should be kept in the oven for about 5 minutes.
The following are recommended when using the
•
oven:
do not use the oven for storage purposes, –
cake tins, casseroles and dishes for roasting –
meat should be placed on the gridiron (central -
ly) and not on the tray (fig. 11.9.3 and 11.9.4),
when selecting cooking parameters, take the –
type of cookware to be used into consideration;
dishes have different levels of heat conduction
depending on their material, wall thickness and
colour.
Stewing meat is best when done using the func -
tion , especially for lean meat. Other type of
meat, including minced meat and poultry, may be
roasted using the function
.
Pizza
You can make your own pizza or a frozen pizza in the
oven. It is recommended that you first preheat the
oven using the function
, and then cook the pizza
at temperature about 200 0 C after choosing the func -
tion . With these functions, the heat is distributed
mainly from the bottom. Put the dish on one level of
the oven, preferably on level [2].
Frozen pizza may be put immediately into a prehe -
ated oven and cooked as described above.
In case of heavy steam when baking very mo -
ist food, it is recommended to put a lid on the
dish and remove it towards the end of cooking to
brown the dish.
Important !
Below in tables the approximate cooking times
for various foods have been summarized. These
are only suggestions and in practice these va -
lues may vary. We recommend making several
tries for a particular dish and noting down the
optimum time and temperature.
