Warming Tips and Techniques
Call on your oven Warming mode to keep foods hot until you are ready to serve them.
The Warming mode default temperature is preprogrammed at 170°F (75°C).
Warming mode temperatures available are 100°F to 210°F (38ºC to 99ºC).
Recommended safe temperatures for keeping foods hot are between 140°F and 210°F (66ºC to 99ºC).
Use the chart below as a guide.
Foods needing to be kept moist should be covered with a lid or aluminum foil.
Dehydrate Tips and Techniques
Dehydrating can be done using the Dehydrate mode. A lower temperature is used and the circulating
heated air slowly removes the moisture for food preservation.
The Dehydrate mode temperature is preprogrammed at 140ºF (60ºC).
The Dehydrate mode temperatures available are 120ºF (49ºC) to 160ºF (71ºC).
Multiple racks can be used simultaneously.
Some foods require as much as 14-15 hours of time to fully dehydrate.
Consult a food preservation book for specific times and the handling of various foods.
This mode is suitable for a variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs and meat strips.
Drying screens can be purchased at specialty kitchen shops.
By using paper towels, some food moisture can be absorbed before dehydrating begins (such as with
sliced tomatoes or sliced peaches).
The Warming mode may be used for proofing (rising) yeast dough and for defrosting.
Set the oven to 100°F (38ºC) for proofing dough or for defrosting frozen foods.
For proofing yeast dough, loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that accomodates the size of the
bowl or pan.
Keep the oven door closed and use oven light to check the rising of the dough.
Use the reminder of the oven Timer to check the proofing of dough or defrosting of food.
