Defrosting
When freezing, lay the food as flat as possible and in portion-
sized pieces at -18 °C. Do not freeze excessively large
quantities. Once defrosted, food will not keep for as long and
spoils more quickly than fresh food.
Leave the food to defrost in the freezer bag, on a plate or in the
perforated cooking container. Always insert the baking tray
underneath. The food is then not left lying in the defrost water
and the cooking compartment remains clean.
All defrost programmes apply to raw food.
If necessary, the meal can occasionally be split apart or pieces
which have already defrosted can be removed from the
appliance.
After defrosting, allow the food to stand for a further 5 -
15 minutes to allow the temperatures to even out.
:
Health risk!
When defrosting food from animal sources, you must remove
the liquid that escapes during defrosting. It must never come
into contact with other food. Bacteria could be transferred.
After defrosting, operate the combination steam oven for
15 minutes using Hot air at 180 °C.
Defrosting fish fillet
Do not place the fish fillets on top of each other.
Defrosting whole poultry
Remove the packaging before defrosting. Leave the poultry to
stand after defrosting. With large poultry (e.g. small turkeys),
you can remove the giblets after approximately 30 minutes
standing time.
Defrost meat
With this programme you can defrost individual joints of meat.
Only thaw fruit (not defrost)
If you only wish to thaw the fruit slightly, you can make an
individual adjustment to the cooking result.
Special
Sterilising bottles
Always clean the bottles with a bottle brush immediately after
drinking. Then clean them in the dishwasher.
Place the bottles in the perforated cooking container so that
they do not touch one another.
Dry the bottles with a clean cloth after sterilising. The process
corresponds to normal sterilisation by boiling.
Preserving
This programme is suitable for fruits with a stone and core and
for vegetables (except beans).
Blanch pumpkin before preserving.
The programme is designed for 1 litre jars. For larger or smaller
jars, you must adjust the cooking result individually.
After the end of the programme, open the appliance door to
prevent overcooking in the remaining heat. Leave the jars to
cool down for a few minutes in the cooking compartment.
The programme is designed for firm fruit. If the fruit being used
is no longer firm, adjust the cooking results individually.
Cooking eggs
Pierce the eggs before cooking. Do not place eggs on top of
each other. Size M corresponds to a unit weight of approx.
50 g.
