Preserving
For preserving use the pizza oven function.
Preserving Jars
Only use commercially available preserving jars (preserving jars with a
rubber ring and glass lid) for preserving.
Jars with screw or bayonet tops are unsuitable, as are metal tins.
Shelf Positions
Use the 2nd shelf position from the bottom for preserving.
Notes on Preserving
Use the fat tray for preserving. There is room on this tray for up to
8 preserving jars of 1 litre capacity.
Pour two cups of water onto the fat tray to ensure that there is suffi-
cient humidity in the oven.
Position the preserving jars on the fat tray such that they do not
touch each other.
The preserving jars should all be filled with the same amount and
closed.
Preserving Times
Select pizza oven function and set temperature to 160 °C.
Fruit and Pickled Gherkins
As soon as bubbles start to form in the liquid in the first jar (nor-
mally front right) (with 1 litre jars after 10 to 20 minutes), switch off
the oven.
Leave the jars to stand in the closed oven for a further 30 minutes –
in the case of delicate fruits, e. g. strawberries, approx. 15 minutes.
Vegetables and Meat
As soon as air bubbles start to form in the liquid in the first jar, turn
the temperature down to 100 °C.
Leave the food to be preserved to continue to cook at 100 °C for
approx. 60–90 minutes.
Then switch off the oven and leave the jars to stand in the closed
oven for a further 30 minutes.
