The Use of Your Oven

The Multifunction Oven

The Multifunction Oven is a combination of several systems of electric cooking within the same cavity. This gives you the option of choo- sing the method of cooking which is exactly right for the food that you wish to cook.

For example the fan oven method of cooking will not only use a lower temperature than other methods of cooking but will enable you to cook mixed loads of foods without flavour transferen- ce.

The conventional top and bottom elements within the cavity of this oven allow you to bake with a different system if you wish. This is particularly suitable for baking delicate foods such as soufflés or light sponges, or large items like a Christmas cake or Quiche Lorraine.

Thermal grilling is another cooking system within the multifunction cavity and is the alternative way to roast meats. No other system will give quite the same succulent finish.

With this model, there is also an excellent full width grill, and a separate rotisserie function which can be used with any of the following cooking methods:

The Fan Oven

The air inside the oven is heated by the element around the fan situated behind the back panel. The fan draws air from the oven, the element heats the air which is circulated into the oven via vents around the back panel. The advantages of cooking with the function are:

Faster Preheating

Because the fan oven quickly reaches temperatu- re, it is not usually necessary to preheat the oven although you may find that you need to allow an extra 5-7 minutes on cooking times. For recipes which require higher temperatures, best results are achieved if the oven is preheated first e.g. bread, pastries scones, soufflés, etc.

Lower Temperatures

Fan oven cooking generally requires lower tem- peratures than conventional cooking. Follow the temperature recommended in the recipe charts or remember to reduce temperatures by about 20- 25° C for your own recipes.

Batch Baking

When batch baking, food on the top shelf may cook a little quicker than those on the lower shelf. This is quite normal. Otherwise, fan ovens have uniform heating. There is no mixing of flavours between dishes.

Hints ant Tips

Ensure the shelves are evenly spaced throughout the oven, particularly when baking.

When cooking more than one dish in the oven place dishes centrally on the shel- ves.

If cooking on two levels, it is advisable to use the 1st and 3rd shelf positions. When the oven is being used for one dish, then better results are obtained by using one of the lower shelf positions.

Place dishes on the lowest runner posi- tion rather than directly on the oven base to allow air circulation around the food.

When the oven is full with both shelves in use, you may need to allow slightly lon- ger cooking times.
