Recommended cooking tables
Cooking times vary according to the texture, consistancy and volume of the food. We recommend monitoring your first
attempts and checking the results, as similar results are obtained by cooking the same dishes in the same conditions. The
following three tables (I, II and III) provide guidelines.

0'.
• When cooking on more than one shelf, the guide
lines given for the shelf position are the best positions.
• For beef, veal, pork and turkey roasts, either with bone or rolled, increase the time by 20'.
