GB OVEN
•Such a heating method allows for uniform heat circulation around the food. When using
thisheating method, thetemperature should beslightly lower ascompared to the traditional
cooking. The temperature should be set below 200°C.
•The forced heat circulation function is ideal for simultaneous cooking of two dishes of
the same or different kind (e.g. meat and fish), which are placed in the oven on two
different levels; however, the two dishes should require similar cooking temperatures.
•At the end of cooking, the front side of baking tin should be preferably turned backwards.
•Whenbaking the twodishes, the temperatureshould be slightlyhigher than recommended,
and the time longer than at baking the single dish. When the set time has elapsed, remove
both dishes from the oven, and make sure that they are sufficiently cooked. If one of the
dishes requires further cooking, leave it in the oven until it is cooked properly.
FORCEDHEATCIRCULATION
DEFROSTING
Thanks to the forced heat circulation, the oven is ideal for defrosting deep frozen foods.
Generally, we advise to place the frozen products on the plate located in the second or
third oven level. Temperature selection for the defrosting process depends on the kind of
frozen food.
•Confectionary, fruits and meat jelly are defrosted by starting the forced heat circulation
without setting the temperature.
•While defrosting meat or poultry, wrap it with aluminium foil in order to prevent the direct
effect of the hot air, and then place it in the middle or lower part of the oven compartment,
turn the oven on, and set the temperature to approximately 50 - 70°C.
•Ready-to-use frozen products, e.g. frozen vegetables (wrapped with aluminium foil)
can be baked immediately without defrosting.
4.8GENERAL HINTS ON PREPARING DISHES
•Cakes can be baked with the use of the traditional tins as well as teflon-coated tins, and forms
made of ceramics, glass and aluminium foil.
•If other baking tins are used, in addition to the baking plate supplied along with the cooker, they
should be placed in the middle of the wire shelf.
•When selecting the baking temperature, use the following hints:
–Thin pastry - high heat power, short baking duration
–Thick layer of pastry and liquid pastry - lower heat power, longer baking duration
•Baking tins should be filled up to 2/3 of their height, leaving enough space for rising.
•For cooking meat, cookware made of ceramic, glass, enamelled steel or iron can be used,
with the handles resistant to elevated temperatures.
•The directions concerning oven preheating should be strictly observed, as there are different
recommendations for different cakes.
•During the baking process, cake should be uniformly heated. This condition is achieved when
selecting function or or .
•If the top of the cake is too dark, the next time the tin with the pastry should be put in the lower
level of the oven, and lower temperature should be selected with increasing the baking time.
•If the bottom of the cake is too dark, the next time put the baking tin in the higher level of the
oven, and select lower temperature.
