COOKING GUIDELINES (FOR REFERENCE ONLY)
Cooking tips
When food comes to a boil, reduce the power setting.
•
• Using a lid will reduce cooking times and save energy by retaining
heat.
• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
Start cooking on a high setting and reduce the setting when the
•
food has warmed up.
Bring to a simmer, cook the rice
• Simmering occurs below boiling point, at around 85°C, when bubbles
only occasionally rise to the surface of the cooking liquid.
It is key for delicious soups and tender stews because the flavors
•
develop without overcooking the food. You should also cook egg-
based and flour-thickened sauces below the boiling point.
• Some tasks, including cooking rice by the absorption method, may
require a higher setting to ensure that the food cooks properly in the
recommended time.
Grilled steak
For cooking juicy and tasty steaks:
1. Allow the meat to stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes
before cooking.
2. Heat a heavy skillet.
3. Brush both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle a small amount of oil into
the hot skillet, then lower the meat into the hot skillet.
4. Turn the steak only once during cooking. The exact cooking time will
depend on the thickness of the steak and how well done you want it.
The time may vary from 2 to 8 minutes per side. Press the steak to
measure its doneness: the firmer it is, the more done it is.
5. Let the steak rest on a warm plate for a few minutes to relax and
tenderize before serving.
