COOKING ADVICE

STERILIZATION

Sterilization of foods to be conserved, in full and hermetically sealed jars, is done in the following way:

a.Turn the switch to position .

b.Set the thermostat knob to position 350 °F (175 °C) and preheat the oven.

c.Fill the grill pan with hot water.

d.Set the jars into the grill pan making sure they do not touch each other and the door and set the thermostat knob to position 260 °F (130 °C).

When sterilization has begun, that is, when the contents of the jars start to bubble, turn off the oven and let cool.

REGENERATION

Turn the switch to position and set the temperature to 300 °F (150 °C).

Bread becomes fragrant again if wet with a few drops of water and put into the oven for about 10 minutes.

ROASTING

To obtain classical roasting, it is necessary to remember:

–the pre-set temperature should be maintained

–that the cooking time depends on the quantity and the type of foods.

COOKING DIFFERENT DISHES AT THE SAME TIME

The MULTIFUNCTION oven at positions of the function selector can cook various different foods at the same time. Fish, cakes and meat can be cooked together without the smells and flavours mixing.

The only precautions required are the following:

–The cooking temperatures must be as close as possible with a maximum difference of 70-80 °F (20-25 °C) between the different foods.

–Different dishes must be placed in the oven at different times according to the cook- ing time required for each one. This type of cooking obviously provides a considerable saving on time and energy.

VENTILATED BROILING AND “AU GRATIN”

Broiling may be done by selecting or with the function selector knob, because the hot air completely envelops the food that is to be cooked.

Set the temperature if a temperature different from the pre-set one is required. Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the grill pan as close to the infra-red ele- ment as possible.

Close the door and let the oven operate until broiling is done.

Adding a few dabs of butter before the end of the cooking time gives the golden “au gratin” effect.

Broiling with the oven door closed.

IMPORTANT: Use always special handles supplied with the appliance to insert/remove the grill-pan from the oven (see next page)

BROILING

Set the function selector knob to position .

Set the temperature if a temperature different from the pre-set one is required. Leave to warm up for approximately 5 minutes with the door closed.

Introduce the food to be cooked, positioning the grill pan as close to the infra-red ele- ment as possible.

Broiling with the oven door closed.

IMPORTANT: Use always special handles supplied with the appliance to insert/remove the grill-pan from the oven (see next page)
