Tips for cooking and roasting
▯ Only put on the food once the heating indicator has
gone out. This also applies to raising the temperature
between two preparations.
▯ Press the meat, poultry and fish pieces flat onto the
frying surface with the spatula. Only turn them once
they can easily be removed from the surface, in order
to not destroy the fibers. Otherwise fluid can come
out, which causes the food to dry out.
Meat, poultry and fish pieces shouldn't touch each
▯
other during frying so that they don't absorb any
liquid.
Don't pierce or cut meat prior to or during cooking, in
▯
order to prevent meat juice from escaping.
▯ Don't salt meat, poultry and fish prior to frying, in
order to prevent the extraction of water and soluble
nutrients.
▯ Fish fillet can be rolled in flour (floured) prior to
frying. This prevents it from sticking as much.
Only turn fish fillet once if possible. First fry it on the
▯
skin side.
Only use oils and fats that can be heated up hot and
▯
are suitable for frying, e.g. refined plant oils or
concentrated butter (clarified butter).

The frying surface is hotter in the centre than in the
▯
edge area. Particularly if you are cooking food with
different cooking times and the temperature
requirements at the same time, you can arrange the
food optimally on the plate. Pay attention to this also
when selecting the amount of food. Rule of thumb:
The thinner the food, the higher the temperature and
the shorter the cooking time.
When working with just one heating zone: Select the
▯
highest setting in each case for the temperature range
specified in the cooking table, or set it approx. 40° F
higher than you are used to from preparing with both
heating zones. Use approximately half of the amount
specified.
