7. COOKING WITH THE OVEN
STATIC:
As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this
system is particularly suitable for certain types of food.
Traditional cooking, also known as static or thermal radiation
cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect
for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case
particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.
GRILL:
The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling
results, especially for thin and medium thickness meat and, in
combination with the rotisserie (when present), it allows the
food to be browned evenly at the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, ribs and bacon. This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly.
SMALL GRILL:
Using only the heat released from the central element, this
function enables small portions of meat and fish to be grilled for
making kebabs, toasted sandwiches and all types of grilled
vegetable side dishes.
BOTTOM:
The heat coming solely from the bottom makes it possible to
complete the cooking of foods that require a greater basic
temperature, without affecting their browning. Perfect for cakes,
pies, tarts and pizzas.

Cooking advice and instructions
7.1.1 General advice
In general, it is not possible to shorten the cooking times by increasing the
temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on
the inside).
7.1.2 Advice for cooking meat
Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality
of the food and to consumer taste.
We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it.
Alternatively, simply press on the roast with a spoon: if it is hard, it is ready; if
not, it needs another few minutes cooking.
