Low-temperature cooking
Vigorously browned meat matures over a longer
time at a lower temperature.
– Preheat the appliance to 70 - 80°C / 160 - 175 °F
(depending on the size of the food). To do this,
turn the “Moisture content” control knob to the
30 % position.
– Briefly roast the meat on all sides in a pan.
Note: the longer you roast the meat in the pan, the
shorter the roasting time in the oven.
– Place the meat on a preheated plate in the oven.
– Larger pieces of meat (e.g. entrecote, roast beef
or leg of lamb) need 2 - 4 hours).
Smaller pieces of meat (steak or diced chicken)
take 30 - 60 minutes.
– You can reduce the temperature to 60°C / 140°F
towards the end of the cooking time. For larger
pieces of meat, you can extend the cooking time
by 2 - 4 hours or for smaller pieces you can
extend it by 30 - 45 minutes.
