Overbaking "Au Gratin" With Cheese - Steba Raclettegrill RC2 Mode D'emploi

2. Raclette dishes with the gourmet pans
You can fill the pans with all kinds of ingredients cut up small, whatever takes your
fancy, cover it with cheese, and heat it under the grill until the cheese melts. Anything
is suitable that you can think of for overbaking with cheese, e.g. meat cut into tiny
pieces, poultry, fish, fruits de mer, sausage, fruit, and vegetables. There are specially
selected raclette cheeses on the market, but you can try other kinds provided their
fat content is over 45%.
3. Overbaking „au gratin" with cheese
You can use this raclette grill to cover the dishes you have made on the grill with a
delicious gratine cheese crust. Simply scatter grated cheese, possibly mixed with ca-
raway seeds, over the dish, or lay it on top in slices, and place the gourmet pan under
the grill. The gourmet pan will be heated from on top by radiant heat, just like under
a grill. First the cheese will melt, then it goes dark in colour. Take the pan out as soon
as the cheese is a crisp golden brown.
4. Old-original raclette cheese method
In this instance, the cheese is at the local point of the raclette party. Plan about 200
to 250 grams of cheese and potatoes per person, and side-dishes as well. Place a slice
of cheese about 5 mm (3/8th of an inch) thick in the pan, cut to lit, and push it in
under the grill. Once the cheese has melted into a creamy mass, take the pan out and
extract the cheese with the aid of a small wooden spatula and pour it onto boiled or
foil potatoes, French bread, or toast.
RC 3 only
The grill stone expands when heated. This can cause small, visible cracks to appear on
the surface, but these do not affect its function. For this reason the stone is excluded
from guarantee cover.
Cleaning
∙ Always pull the plug out of the socket before cleaning the appliance.
∙ Clean the appliance as soon as possible after use, but allow the grill surface to cool
down sufficiently first. Cleaning is easiest while the appliance is still fairly warm. To
remove the grill surface, lift it up from underneath with one hand. Then you can
take it out without any difficulty (Fig. 6).
∙ Basic appliance: Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Never immerse the appliance
in water. Make sure that no water finds its way inside the appliance. Observe the
safety instructions as well.
∙ Gourmet pans: Soak the gourmet pans in water with a little washing-up liquid for
a while to soften if necessary.
