Tips for cooking with the cooking sensor
▯
Keeping warm/heating up: Portioned frozen products,
e.g. spinach. Place the frozen product in the
cookware. Add the volume of water specified by the
manufacturer. Place a lid on the cookware and set the
temperature to 160° F (70
°C). Stir occasionally.
▯
Poaching: This function is suitable for cooking food at
low temperatures and for thickening sauces and
stews. Set the temperature to 195° F (90
°C).
▯
Boiling: You can use this function to boil water with
the lid on without it boiling over. The temperature
control allows for efficient cooking. Set the
temperature to 212° F (100
°C).
▯
Cooking in a pressure cooker: Follow the
manufacturer's recommendations. After the audible
signal sounds, continue cooking for the recommended
time. Set the temperature to 240° F (115 °C).
▯
Frying with a large amount of oil in the saucepan: Heat
the oil with the lid on. Remove the lid after the audible
signal and add the food (insofar as there are no other
instructions in the "Recommended dishes" table). Set
the temperature to 340° F (170
°C).
Notes
▯
Always cook with the lid on, except when you use the
function for frying with a large amount of oil in the
saucepan, 340° F (170
°C).
▯
If no signal sounds, ensure that there is a lid on the
container. For optimum operation of the cooking
sensor, we recommend always using a lid, except
when you use the function for deep-fat frying with a
large amount of oil in the saucepan.
▯
Never leave oil unattended when it is being heated.
Use oil that is suitable for deep-fat frying. Do not mix
different cooking fats and oils – e.g. oil and lard – as
such mixtures may foam up when hot.
▯
If you are not satisfied with the cooking result,
e.g. when boiling potatoes, next time use more water.
Maintain the recommended temperature level.
Setting the boiling point
The point at which water starts to boil depends on the
height of your home above sea level. If the water is
boiling too vigorously or not vigorously enough, you can
set the boiling point. Proceed as follows:
▯
Select the basic setting
™†
; see the section entitled
▯
The basic setting is set to 3
by default. If your home is
at an elevation between 200
and 400
m above sea
level, there is no need to change the boiling point. If
not, choose the correct setting from the following
table according to your altitude:
Note:
The temperature level 212° F (100 °C) is sufficient
for efficient boiling, even if the water does not boil very
quickly. However, you can change the boiling point. If, for
example, you want it to boil more quickly, you can select a
lower altitude.
Programming
The cooktop must be on.
1.
