7.1Cooking advice and instructions

7.1.1 General advice

We recommend preheating the oven before putting the food in. Do not

place foods inside the oven until on the display stops flashing and the beep has sounded to confirm that the programmed temperature has been reached.

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).

7.1.2 Advice for cooking meat

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

7.1.3 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.

7.1.4 Advice for defrosting and proving

We recommend positioning frozen foods in a lidless container on the first runner of the oven.

The food must be defrosted without its wrapping.

Lay out the foodstuffs to be defrosted evenly, not overlapping.
