Tips for roasting and grilling
Preprepared products
Observe the instructions on the packaging.
If you line the accessories with greaseproof paper, make sure
that the paper is suitable for these temperatures. Make sure the
paper is a suitable size for the dish to be cooked.
The cooking result greatly depends on the quality of the food.
Pre-browning and irregularities can sometimes even be found
on the raw product.
Note
The universal pan may warp when cooking frozen dishes. The reason for this is the large temperature differences that the
accessory is subjected to. The deformation disappears as early as during the cooking process.
Special dishes
At low temperatures, : 3D hot air is equally useful for
producing creamy yoghurt as it is for proving light yeast dough.
First, remove accessories, hook-in racks or telescopic shelves
from the cooking compartment.
Preparing yoghurt
1.Bring 1 litre of milk (3.5 % fat) to the boil and cool down to
40 °C.
2.Stir in 150 g of yoghurt (at refrigerator temperature).
3.Pour into cups or small screw-top jars and cover with cling
film.
4.Preheat the cooking compartment as indicated.
5.Place the cups or jars on the cooking compartment floor and
incubate as indicated.
Proving dough
1.Prepare the dough as usual, place it in a heat-resistant
ceramic dish and cover.
2.Preheat the cooking compartment as indicated.
3.Switch off the oven and place the dough in the cooking
compartment and leave it to prove.
The table does not contain information
for the weight of the joint.
Select the next lowest weight from the instructions and extend the time.
How to tell when the roast is ready. Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist shops) or carry out a “spoon test”.
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it is ready. If the spoon can be
pressed in, it needs to be cooked for a little longer.
The roast is too dark and the crackling
is partly burnt.
Check the shelf height and temperature.
The roast looks good but the juices are
burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish or add more liquid.
The roast looks good but the juices are
too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and use less liquid.
Steam rises from the roast when basted. This is normal and due to the laws of physics. The majority of the steam escapes through
the steam outlet. It may settle and form condensation on the cooler switch panel or on
the fronts of adjacent units.
