16.2 Tips for keeping acrylamide levels low
during cooking
Acrylamide is dangerous to your health and is pro-
duced in particular when you cook cereal and potato
products at high temperatures.
Dish Tip
General ¡ Keep cooking times as
short as possible.
¡ Brown dishes until they
are golden brown and
not too dark.
¡ Use large, thick pieces
of food. These contain
less acrylamide.
Baked items and biscuits ¡ Set the temperature for
hot air to max. 180°C.
¡ Brush baked items
and biscuits with egg
or egg yolk. This re-
duces the production
of acrylamide.
Dish Tip
Oven chips ¡ Spread the chips out
evenly and in a single
layer on the baking
tray.
¡ Cook at least 400g at
once on a baking tray
so that the chips do
not dry out.
16.3 Defrosting, heating and cooking with
the microwave
Recommended settings for defrosting, heating and
cooking with the microwave.
The cooking time depends on the cookware, as well as
on the temperature, composition and quantity of the
food. This is why ranges are given in the tables. Begin
with the lower value and, if necessary, use a higher set-
ting the next time. It may be that you have different
quantities from those specified in the tables. There is a
rule of thumb for this: Double the amount = almost
double the time, half the amount = half the time.
Tips on defrosting, heating and cooking with the
microwave
Follow these tips for good results when defrosting,
heating and cooking with the microwave.
Issue Tip
You want to prepare a dif-
ferent amount than that in-
dicated in the table.
Increase or reduce the
cooking times using the
following rule of thumb:
¡ Double the amount =
almost double the
cooking time
¡ Half the amount = half
the cooking time
Defrosting with the microwave
Recommended settings for defrosting food and dishes.
Note:
Preparation tips
¡ Use microwave-safe cookware without a lid.
¡ Turn or stir the food two or three times during the defrosting time. When turning, remove any liquid that escapes
during defrosting.
¡ After defrosting, leave the food to rest for 10–60ºminutes.
¡ Delicate parts such as the legs and wings of chicken or fatty outer layers of roasts can be covered with small
pieces of aluminium foil. The foil must not touch the cooking compartment walls. You can remove the foil halfway
through the defrosting time.
