Roasting, braising and grilling
Here, you will find information on roasting, braising and
grilling poultry, meat and fish. The settings tables list the
optimal settings for a wide range of dishes.
Poultry
When cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the
underside of the wings. This allows the fat to run out.
If using duck breast, score the skin. Do not turn duck
breasts.
Add some liquid to the poultry in the dish. Cover the
base of the ovenware with approx. 1-2 cm of liquid.
When you turn poultry, ensure that the breast side or
the skin side is underneath at first.
Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if you
baste it towards the end of the roasting time with butter,
salted water or orange juice.
Meat
Baste lean meat with fat as required or cover it with
strips of bacon. Score the rind crosswise. If you turn the
joint when cooking it, ensure that the rind is underneath
to begin with.
When the joint is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to
rest for a further 10 minutes in the cooking
compartment, keeping the door closed. This helps
distribute the meat juices more evenly. Wrap the joint in
aluminium foil if necessary. The recommended resting
time is not included in the indicated cooking time.
Fish
Whole fish does not need to be turned.Place the whole
fish into the cooking compartment in its swimming
position, with the dorsal fin at the top. Placing half a
potato or a small oven-proof container in the stomach
cavity of the fish will keep it upright.
You can tell when the fish is cooked because the dorsal
fin can be removed easily.
Roasting and braising on the wire rack
On the wire rack, poultry and meat will become very
crispy on all sides.Roasting on the wire rack works
particularly well for large poultry or for multiple pieces at
the same time.
Add up to 1/2 litre of water to the universal pan,
depending on the size and type of meat. Any dripping
fat and meat juices will be caught. You can make a
sauce from these juices. This will also result in less
smoke being produced and keep the cooking
compartment cleaner.
Slide the universal pan into the oven at the indicated
shelf position with the wire rack on top. Ensure that the
wire rack is correctly positioned on the universal pan.
Roasting and braising in cookware
:Warning – Risk of injury from shattering glass!
Place hot glass cookware on a dry mat after cooking.
The glass may crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
:Warning – Risk of scalding!
Very hot steam may escape when opening the lid after
cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam
can escape away from you.
It is more convenient to roast and braise meat in
cookware. You can take the joint out of the cooking
compartment more easily in the cookware, and prepare
the sauce in the cookware itself.
Only use cookware that is suitable for use in an oven.
Check whether the cookware fits in the cooking
compartment.
It is best to use glass cookware. Place hot glass
cookware onto a dry mat after cooking. The glass may
crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
When roasting poultry and other meat, add a little liquid.
The liquid in the cookware evaporates as the meat
roasts. Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore
not particularly suitable. The meat cooks more slowly
and does not brown so well. Use a higher temperature
and/or a longer cooking time.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions for your roasting
dishes.
Roasting in uncovered cookware
It is best to use a deep roasting dish for roasting poultry
and meat. Place the dish onto the wire rack. If you do
not have any suitable cookware, use the universal pan.
Braising in covered cookware
Cooking with covered cookware keeps the cooking
compartment considerably cleaner. Ensure that the lid
fits well and closes properly. Place the cookware onto
the wire rack.
The distance between the meat and the lid should be at
least 3 cm, as the meat may expand.
Very hot steam may escape when the lid is opened
after cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot
steam can escape away from you.
To braise the meat, sear it first as required. Add water,
wine, vinegar or a similar liquid to the braising liquid.
Cover the bottom of the cookware with at least 2 cm of
liquid.
The liquid in the cookware evaporates as the meat
roasts. Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
