The ‘Eco’ Setting 90˚C
This is used for slow cooking, keeping
food warm and warming plates for
short periods. Extra care must be taken
when warming bone china as it may be
damaged if too hot.
Some advantages of slow cooking
are:
The oven stays cleaner because there is
less splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there
is less fear of overcooking.
Inexpensive cuts of meat are
tenderised.
Fully loading the oven can be very
economical.
Cooking times can be extended in
some cases by up to 2hrs.
The kitchen stays cooler.
Bearing in mind these advantages, it
makes sense to cook larger quantities
of food than required and store them in
a freezer to be used cold or for re-
heating. It is important to follow the
guidelines given for preparing food
using the ‘Eco’ setting.
