AGA R7 - Oven Controls

7
The AGA R7 150 has the traditional cast iron ovens with
independently controlled hotplates.
Hotplates
The two hotplates are at dierent heats; the boiling plate
being the hottest of the two and the simmering plate is a
lower heat. Each plate is individually controlled.
Boiling Plate
The boiling plate is used for making toast, boiling a kettle,
stir-frying and cooking at a high heat.
Simmering Plate
The simmering plate is for slower cooking, such as sauces,
simmering pans and can also be used to cook on directly
for toasted sandwiches, drop scones, no-fat fried eggs and
quesadillas.
Roasting Oven
The hottest oven for high temperature cooking; pastries,
breads, roasting of meat, vegetables and poultry, grilling at
the top of the oven and frying on the base of the oven.
Baking Oven
A moderate oven for cooking cakes and biscuits, baking sh,
lasagne or shepherds pie, plus roasting meat and poultry at a
medium heat. Cooking sweet and savoury dishes together is
no problem as the avours do not mix.
Simmering Oven
Long, slow cooking in the simmering oven develops avours
and makes the toughest meat tender. It’s large capacity
means several pans can be stacked here; soup, casserole,
steamed rice, steamed carrots and poached fruits all cooking
simultaneously, without any danger of burning.
NOTE: From cold the ovens will take several hours to achieve
normal operating temperature.
Warming Plate (Hotcupboard)
The warming plate is the ideal resting place for cooked food.
Slow Cooking Oven (Hotcupboard)
Ideal for a broad range of long slow cooking applications,
such as leg of lamb, pulled pork, belly pork and celebration
cake.
NOTE: Meat and vegetable dishes should be started on the
boiling plate or in the roasting oven.
Warming Oven (Hotcupboard)
Used for warming plates and serving dishes. Can also be used
for resting joints before carving.
