Making yoghurt

1.

Remove the accessories and shelves from the
cooking compartment.

Heat 1 litre of milk (3.5% fat) to 90 °C on the hob
and then leave it to cool down to 40 °C. Only heat
UHT milk to 40 °C.

3.

Stir 30 g yoghurt into the milk.

4.

Pour the mixture into small containers, e.g. small
jars with lids.

5.

Cover the containers with film, e.g. cling film.

6.

Place the containers on the cooking compartment
floor.

7.

Use the recommended settings when configuring
the appliance settings.

After making the yoghurt, leave it to cool in the refri-
gerator.

22.12 Tips for keeping acrylamide levels
to a minimum when cooking

Acrylamide is harmful to your health and is produced
when you cook cereal and potato products at very high
temperatures.

Meal

Tip

General
informa-
tion

¡

Keep cooking times as short as pos-
sible.

¡

Cook food until it is golden brown, but
not too dark.

¡

Use large, thick pieces of food. These
contain less acrylamide.

Baking

Set max. top/bottom heating to 200 °C.

Meal

Tip

Biscuits

¡

Set the max. top/bottom heating to
190 °C.

¡

Brush baked items and biscuits with
egg or egg yolk. This reduces the pro-
duction of acrylamide.

Oven
chips

¡

Spread the chips out evenly and in a
single layer on the baking tray.

¡

Cook at least 400 g at once on a bak-
ing tray so that the chips do not dry
out.

22.13 Preserving food

You can preserve fruit and vegetables by heating them
and sealing them in air-tight jars.

¡

Only use heat-resistant, clean, undamaged pre-
serving jars, rubber seals and clips.

¡

Only use fruit and vegetables which are in perfect
condition.
