Reducing the pressure in foods
Many food items are covered with skin of shell.
They may crack due to the pressure that builds up
during cooking. To avoid this, the skin or shell must
be punctured with a fork or knife. This process
must be applied to potato, chicken liver, egg yolk,
sausage and some fruits.
Mixing and turning the food
during cooking
Mixing and turning the food is important in terms
of cooking all parts evenly.
Different cooking times
Always start by trying the minimum cooking time
and check whether the food is cooked or not.
Cooking times in this user manual are approximate
values. Cooking times may vary depending on the
sizes and shapes of the foods and vessels.
Waiting time
Always keep the food waiting for some time after
taking it from the oven. Keeping the food wait for
some time after defrosting, cooking and reheating
will always give better results. Because the heat
of the food will dissipate well. In microwave ovens,
foods continue to get cooked for some more
time even after the oven is switched off. Cooking
continues not because of the microwave oven
but the energy inside the food. Waiting time may
change depending on the meal. In some cases, this
duration is as short as it takes you to take the meal
from the oven and transfer it to the service plate.
This time may go up to 10 minutes in large foods.
Grill
Turn the knob clockwise to
programme. This
programme allows you to grill thin meat slices,
steaks, shish, kebabs, sausages and chicken
pieces.
