Tips for Roasting and Braising
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).
The roast is too dark and the crack-
ling is burned in places, and/or the
roast is too dry.
Check the shelf position and temperature. Select a lower temperature the next time and reduce the roasting
time if necessary.
The crackling is too thin. Increase the temperature or switch on the grill briefly at the end of the roasting time.
The roast looks good but the juices
are burnt.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more liquid if necessary.
The roast looks good but the juices
are too clear and watery.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less liquid if necessary.
The meat gets burned during brais-
ing.
The roasting dish and lid must fit together well and close properly.
Reduce the temperature and add more liquid when braising if necessary.
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 400g at once on a baking tray so that
the chips do not dry out.
