Roasting

Combination mode

The lower the temperature in the cooking compartment compared to the core temperature, the longer the cooking process and therefore the more tender the result.

Roast meat on the rack with the universal tray underneath. The meat juices will collect in the tray and can be used to make a gravy or sauce.

The addition of steam prevents the surface of lean meat from drying out. Excellent results are achieved with lean meat by first browning the meat at a high temperature with very little moisture (cooking stage 1) and then cooking the meat using the food probe (cooking stage 2). You should set the temperature for cooking stage 2 approx. 30 °C higher than that set for the food probe.

When roasting fatty meat with crackling, we recommend carrying out the first stage at a high temperature to render the fat and brown the outside. Reduce the temperature and increase the moisture for the second stage. In the third stage, increase the temperature so that the crackling becomes crispy.

For braised meats, cooking stage 1 should be carried out at a high temperature with very little moisture and cooking stage 2 should then be carried out using the food probe with high moisture to complete the cooking process. You should set the temperature for cooking stage 2 approx. 30 °C higher than that set for the food probe.
