As soon as bubbles begin to form in the jars, set the temperature back to between 120 and 140 °C. Depending on

the type of vegetable, heat for approx. 35 to 70 minutes. Switch off the oven after this time and use the residual heat.

Acrylamide in foodstuffs

Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato products prepared at high temperatures, such as potato crisps, chips,

toast, bread rolls, bread or fine baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, cookies).

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum when preparing food

General	■ Keep cooking times to a minimum.
	■ Cook meals until they are golden brown, but not too dark.
	■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.

Baking	With top/bottom heating max. 200 °C.
	With 3D hot air or hot air max.180 °C.

Biscuits	With top/bottom heating max. 190 °C.
	With 3D hot air or hot air max. 170 °C.
	Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.

Oven chips	Spread evenly over the baking tray, in a single layer. Bake at least 400 g per baking tray
	so that the chips do not dry out
