Acrylamide in foodstuffs
Acrylamide is mainly produced in grain and potato
products prepared at high temperatures, such as potato
crisps, chips, sliced bread, bread rolls, bread or fine
baked goods (biscuits, gingerbread, spiced biscuit).
Slow cook
Slow cooking is a technique for cooking food over a
long period at low temperatures. For this reason, it is
also called "low-temperature cooking".
Slow cooking is ideal for all prime cuts (e.g. tender
portions of beef, veal, pork, lamb or poultry) which are
to be cooked "à point". The meat will remain succulent
and tender.
The benefit of this cooking method is that it allows lots
of scope for menu planning because slow-cooked meat
is easy to keep warm. You do not have to turn the meat
when cooking. Keep the appliance door closed in order
to maintain an even cooking climate.
Only use fresh, clean and hygienic meat without bones.
Carefully remove sinews and fat from around the edge.
Fat develops a strong, distinct flavour during slow
cooking. You can also use seasoned or marinated
meat. Do not use defrosted meat.
Meat can be carved immediately following slow
cooking. No standing time is required. Due to the
special cooking method, the meat looks pink, but is not
raw or undercooked.
Note: Delayed-start operation with an end time is not
possible for the slow cooking heating type.
Cookware
Use flat cookware, e.g. a glass/porcelain serving dish.
Place the cookware into the cooking compartment to
preheat it.
Always place the uncovered cookware onto the wire
rack at level 1.
You can find additional information in the tips on slow
cooking attached to the settings table.
Your appliance features the heating type "Slow cook".
Only start operation when the cooking compartment
has fully cooled down. Allow the cooking compartment
to warm up for around 10 minutes with the cookware
inside.
Sear the meat on the hotplate at a very high heat and
for a sufficiently long time on all sides, even on the
ends. Place into the preheated cookware right away.
Place the cookware containing the meat into the
cooking compartment once again and cook slowly.
Recommended setting values
The slow cooking temperature and cooking time are
dependent on the size, thickness and quality of the
meat. Different settings ranges are indicated for this
reason.

Tips for keeping acrylamide to a minimum
General ■ Keep cooking times as short as possible.
■ Cook food until it is golden brown, but not too dark.
■ Large, thick pieces of food contain less acrylamide.
Baking With top/bottom heating at max. 200 °C.
With hot air at max. 180 °C.
Biscuits With top/bottom heating at max. 190 °C.
With hot air at max. 170 °C.
Egg or egg yolk reduces the production of acrylamide.
Oven chips Spread out a single layer evenly on the baking tray. Cook at least 400 g at once on a baking tray so that
the chips do not dry out.

Tips for slow cooking
Drying
With 4D hot air, you can dry foods with outstanding
results. With this type of preserving, flavourings are
concentrated by the dehydration.
Only use unblemished fruit, vegetables and herbs and
wash them thoroughly. Line the wire rack with
greaseproof paper or parchment paper. Drain the
excess water from the fruit and dry it.
If necessary, cut it into equal chunks or thin slices.
Place unpeeled fruit onto the dish with the sliced
surfaces facing upwards. Ensure that neither fruit nor
mushrooms overlap on the wire rack.
Grate vegetables and then blanch them. Allow the
blanched vegetables to drain off and distribute them
evenly on the wire rack.
Dry herbs on the stem. Position the herbs evenly and
slightly heaped on the wire rack.
Use the following shelf positions when drying:
■ 1 wire rack: Level 2
■ 2 wire racks: Level 3+1
Turn very juicy fruit and vegetables several times. After
drying, remove the dried products from the paper
immediately.

Slow-cooking duck breast. Place the cold duck breast into a pan and fry the skin side first. After slow cooking, grill for 3 to 5 minutes until
crispy.
The slow-cooked meat is not as hot as
conventionally roasted meat.
So that the roasted meat does not cool so quickly, warm the plates and serve the sauces very hot.
