Pizza; Speed Convection; Proof (Some Models); Warm - Thermador MASTERPIECE ME301JP Manual De Instrucciones

Use the broil pan and grid included with your oven.
▯
Do not cover the broil grid with foil. It is designed to
▯
drain fats and oils away from the cooking surface to
prevent smoking and spattering.
Turn meats once during the recommended cook time
▯
(see charts at the end of the book).
Never use heat-proof glass (Pyrex®); it cannot tolerate
▯
the high temperature.

Pizza

In the Pizza mode, heat from the lower and upper
elements is circulated throughout the oven by the
convection fan.
Use the Pizza mode for fresh or frozen pizza.
Tips
For a crispy crust, place pizza directly on the rack.
▯
For a softer crust, use a pizza pan.
▯
When proofing dough, coat dough with olive oil and
▯
cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap to prevent crust
formation.
Sprinkle cornmeal on the pizza pan to prevent sticking.
▯
If using a pizza paddle, sprinkle the paddle liberally
▯
with cornmeal for ease in transferring the dough to the
pan.
If parbaking handmade pizza dough, prick the dough
▯
with a fork before baking.
If using a pizza pan, choose a dark, perforated pan for
▯
a more crisp crust and a non-perforated pan for a
softer crust.
Preheat baking stone while the oven is preheating.
▯
Rack positions to use:
▯
Homemade Pizza: rack 2
Frozen: follow manufacturer's directions
Baking Stone: rack2
The convection fan cycles on and off when using pizza
▯
mode.

Speed Convection

Speed Convection uses all heating elements as well as
the convection fan to evenly distribute heat throughout
the oven cavity. The main difference between Speed
Convection and other convection modes is that it does
not require preheating.
Speed Convection is well suited for frozen convenience
foods such as fish sticks and chicken nuggets.
The benefits of Speed Convection include:
Decrease in cook time since preheating is not
▯
necessary.
Crispy and evenly browned frozen foods.
▯
Tips
Begin cooking all frozen convenience products in a
▯
cold, non-preheated oven. The food will still be done in
package time.
Follow the package instructions for time and
▯
temperature.
‹
Flipping of food halfway through recommended cook
▯
time is not necessary.
Frozen foods that are sold in microwaveable plastic
▯
containers should not be used in this mode.
Cook food items on rack position 3 unless directed
▯
otherwise by the product manufacturer.
Evenly space food items on pan.
▯
For double cavity appliances, only one cavity is
▯
available when using Speed Convection.

Proof (Some Models)

In Proof, the appliance uses the upper and lower
elements to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or
other yeast doughs.
Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
▯
The Proof mode temperature is 85°F to 110 °F (29 °C
▯
to 43 °C).
The default temperature in Proof mode is 100 °F
▯
(38 °C).
Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that
▯
accommodates the size of the container.
Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check
▯
the rising of the dough.
%

Warm

In Warm, the upper and lower elements maintain a low
temperature in the oven cavity in order to keep food at
serving temperature.
Use the Warm mode to keep cooked foods hot until
▯
ready to serve.
Warm mode temperatures are 140 °F-220 °F (66 °C -
▯
107 °C).
The default temperature in the Warm mode is 170 °F
▯
(77 °C).
Foods that must be kept moist should be covered with
▯
a lid or aluminum foil.

CAUTION
WHEN USING WARM MODE, FOLLOW THESE
GUIDELINES:
Do not use the Warm mode to heat cold food.
▯
Be sure to maintain proper food temperature. The
▯
USDA recommends holding hot food at 140 °F
(60 °C) or warmer.
DO NOT warm food longer than one hour.
