Cooking modes, Practical cooking advice

Cooking modes

!A temperature value can be set for all cooking modes between 60°C and MAX, except for the GRILL programme, for which only the MAX power level is recommended.

TRADITIONAL OVEN mode

Both the top and bottom heating elements will come on. With this traditional cooking mode, it is best to use one cooking rack only; if more than one rack is used, the heat will be distributed unevenly.

BAKING mode

The lower heating element comes on. This mode may be used in cooking temperature sensitive foods, especially pies, which need to rise and so should be heated from below.

TOP OVEN mode

The top heating element comes on. This mode can be used to brown food at the end of cooking.

GRILL mode

The top heating element comes on. The extremely high and direct temperature of the grill makes it possible to brown the surface of meats and roasts while locking in the juices to keep them tender. The grill is also highly recommended for dishes that require a high surface temperature: such as beef steaks, veal, rib steak, fillets, hamburgers etc...

Always cook in this mode with the oven door partially open.

Practical cooking advice

!In the GRILL cooking mode, place the dripping pan in position 1 to collect cooking residues (fat and/or grease).

GRILL

•Insert the rack in position 3 or 4. Place the food in the centre of the rack.

•We recommend that you set the maximum power level. The top heating element is regulated by a thermostat and may not always be on.

PIZZA

•Use a light aluminium pizza pan. Place it on the rack provided.

For a crispy crust, do not use the dripping pan (prevents crust from forming by extending cooking time).

•If the pizza has a lot of toppings, we recommend adding the mozzarella cheese on top of the pizza halfway through the cooking process.
