AUTOMATIC COOKING
Only the main oven can be controlled automatically.
GUIDANCE ON AUTOMATIC COOKING
1.
When planning your meal remember that the oven control setting refers to the
temperature on the middle shelf; above this shelf it is hotter and below it is cooler.
Therefore foods which require different temperatures can be cooked automatically
at the same time.
2. Set the oven timer so that the food has just finished or about to finish cooking on
your return to the oven. This will ensure the
food has not cooled down and does
not require reheating before
serving.
3. Food should be as cold as possible when it goes into the oven ideally straight
from the refrigerator. Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed thoroughly
before it is put in the oven.
4.
We advise that warm food should never be placed in the oven if
there is to be a
delay period. Stews prepared by frying the meat
and vegetables should be cooked
as soon as possible.
5.
We advise dishes containing left-over cooked poultry or meat, for example
Shepherds Pie, should not be cooked automatically
if there is to be a delay period.
6
. Stews and joints should be cooked by the long slow method, so
that the delay
period is kept to a minimum.
7.
On warm days, to prevent harmful bacterial growth in certain
foods (ie poultry,
joints, etc) the delayed start should be kept to a minimum.
8. Wine or beer may ferment and cream may curdle during the delay period, so it is
best to add these ingredients just before serving.
9. Foods which discolour should be protected by coating in fat or tossing in water to
which lemon juice has been added, prior to placing food in the oven.
10. Dishes containing liquid should not be filled too full to prevent boiling over.
11. Foods should be well sealed (but not airtight) in a container to prevent the loss of
liquid during cooking. Aluminium foil gives a good seal.
12. Ensure food is cooked thoroughly before serving.
