CIRCULAR:

The combination of the fan and the circular element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) enables different foods to be cooked on several levels, as long as they need the same temperature and cooking time. Hot air circulation ensures instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously (on different levels) without mixing smells and flavours. (For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to use the 2nd and 4th runners).

9.1Cooking advice and instructions

9.1.1 General advice

We recommend preheating the oven before putting the food in.

For cooking on several levels, we recommend using a fan-assisted function () to achieve uniform cooking at all heights.

In general, it is not possible to shorten the cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be well-cooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).

9.1.2 Advice for cooking meat

Cooking times, especially for meat, vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.

We recommend using a meat thermometer for meat when roasting it. Alternatively, simply press on the roast with a spoon: if it is hard it is ready, if not, it needs another few minutes cooking.

9.1.3 Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits

Use dark metal moulds for desserts: they help to absorb the heat better.

The temperature and the cooking duration depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.

Check whether the dessert is cooked all the way through: at the end of the cooking time, put a toothpick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.

If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10 °C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.
