Tips for roasting
1. Seasoning with lemon juice and black pepper will improve the cooking
performance when cooking a whole chicken, turkey or a large piece of meat
2. Meat with bones takes about 15 to 30 minutes longer before it is cooked than a
roast of the same size without bones.
3. You should calculate about 4 to 5 minutes cooking time per centimeter height of the
meat.
4. Let meat rest in the oven for about 10 minutes after the cooking time. The juice is
better distributed all over the roast and does not run out when the meat is cut.
5. Fish in a fire-resistant dish should be placed on the rack at the medium or lower
level.
Tips for grilling
• Grilling is ideal for cooking meat, fish and poultry and will achieve a nice brown
surface without it drying out too much. Flat pieces, meat skewers and sausages are
particularly suited for grilling as are vegetables with a high water content such as
tomatoes and onions.
Tips for saving energy
The following information will help you to use your appliance in an ecological way, and
to save energy:
1. Use dark coloured or enamel coated cookware in the oven since the heat
transmission will be better.

6. You can save energy by switching off your oven a few minutes before the cooking
time. Do not open the oven door.
7. Defrost frozen dishes before cooking them.

How to avoid problems with baking:
1. How to establish whether sponge cake is baked through. Approximately 10 minutes
before the end of the baking time specified in the recipe, stick a cocktail stick into
the cake at the highest point. If the cocktail stick comes out clean, the cake is ready.
2. The cake collapses: Use less fluid next time or set the oven temperature 10 degrees
lower. Observe the specified mixing times in the recipe.
3. The cake has risen tin the middle but is lower around the edge: Do not grease the
sides of the spring form cake tin. After baking, loosen the cake carefully with a knife.
