Tips on baking
See the Baking Chart and the
Cookbook supplied with this oven
for suggestions of temperatures,
runner heights and times.
Place cakes in rectangular tins with
the longer side across the width of the
oven for optimum heat distribution and
even results.
When baking cakes with fresh fruit
toppings and tall sponge cakes place
the tin in the grill pan to catch any
spillages and keep the oven cleaner.
When baking anything with a high salt
content (such as pretzels) they must
be placed on baking parchment. High
concentrations of salt can damage
PerfectClean surfaces.
Frozen food
When baking deep frozen products
such as cakes, pizza and baguettes,
use the lowest temperature quoted on
the manufacturer's packaging. Place
such items on baking paper directly on
the wire rack or in the pizza pan (extra
accessory). Placing them on the baking
tray or in the grill pan can cause the
metal to distort. This distortion would
increase with subsequent use.
Deep frozen foods such as oven chips
or potato croquettes can be cooked
on the baking tray or in the grill pan.
Place these types of frozen foods on
baking parchment and select the
lowest temperature quoted on the
manufacturer's packaging.
Eating food which has been cooked
correctly is important for good health.
Only bake cakes, pizza, chips etc
until they are golden brown. Do not
allow them to become dark brown.
To achieve even results without
over-browning the food
–
always select the lowest
temperature given in the
recipe/cooking instructions on the
packaging. Do not set a temperature
higher than that recommended.
Increasing the temperature may
reduce the cooking time, but will lead
to uneven browning, and
unsatisfactory cooking results.
– Check if the food is cooked at the
end of the shortest time quoted.
To check if a cake is ready, insert a
wooden skewer into the centre.
It is ready if the skewer comes out
clean, without dough or crumbs
sticking to it.
The cooling fan will continue for a while
after switching the oven off.
Always remove all accessories, trays
and racks which are not being used
when using the oven to get the best
results and to keep cleaning of the
trays to a minimum.
