Recommendations for cooking
▯ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating ; for delicate
dishes like milk, pudding, rice pudding or cereals heat
up with setting 8 - 8.5.
▯ When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting
down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and
the cookware. Steam does not need to escape for a
good cooking result.
▯ After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you
serve the food.
▯ To cook with a pressure cooker, observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
▯ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise more
nutrients than necessary will be lost. The kitchen timer
can be used to set the optimum cooking time.
▯ For a healthier cooking result, smoking oil should be
avoided.
▯ To brown food, fry small portions in succession.
▯ Cookware may reach high temperatures while the food
is cooking. We recommend that you use oven mits.
▯ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient
cooking in section ~ "Protecting the Environment"
Settings table
The following table provides some examples. Cooking
times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight
and quality. Deviations are therefore possible.
9 CAUTION
During cooking, stews or liquid meals such as
soups, sauces or drinks can heat up too quickly
unnoticed and overflow or spatter. For this reason
we recommend that you stir continuously, gradually
heating the food at a suitable power level.
