In some models, on the inner side of the door you can find:

• the numbers of the shelf positions.

• information about the heating functions, recommended shelf positions and temperatures for typical dishes.

12.2 Advice for special heating

functions of the oven

Keep Warm

Use this function if you want to keep food warm.

The temperature regulates itself automatically to 80 °C.

Plate Warming

For warming plates and dishes. Distribute plates and dishes evenly on

the wire shelf. Move stacks around after half of the warming time (swap top and bottom).

The automatic temperature is 70 °C. Recommended shelf position: 3.

Dough Proving

You can use this automatic function with any recipe for yeast dough you like. It gives you a good atmosphere for rising. Put the dough into a dish that is big enough for rising. It is not necessary to cover it. Insert a wire shelf on the first shelf position and put the dish in. Close the door and set the function: Dough Proving. Set the necessary time.

Defrost

Remove the food packaging and put the food on a plate. Do not cover the food with a bowl or a plate, as this can extend the defrost time. Use the first shelf position from the bottom.

12.3 SousVide Cooking

This function uses lower cooking temperatures than normal cooking. Handle the food with special care for better food quality.

Recommendations regarding food safety:

• Use high quality raw materials.

• Always use the raw material that is as fresh as possible.

• Always keep raw materials in correct conditions before you cook them.

• Always clean the food before you cook it.

• For good and safe results, always look at the values in the cooking tables. Check the cooking time, temperature and dimension of the food.

• Food should not be kept at a temperature below 60 °C for a longer time to avoid safety problems.

• Use low temperatures only for food that could be eaten raw and only for a short time.

• Sous-vide dishes have the best taste immediately after cooking. If you do not eat the food immediately after the cooking, quickly decrease its temperature. To do that, put the food in an ice bath and put it in the fridge. You can keep the food in the fridge for 2 – 3 days.

• Do not use Sous-vide cooking function for reheating food leftovers.

• Prevent contact between raw food and cooked food while you prepare and cook the food.

• Do not use the same tools for different things without washing them carefully.

• For recipes with raw eggs, prevent egg whites or yolks from contact with the external part of the egg shells.

Hints and tips regarding food vacuum packing:

• Necessary equipment for Sous-vide cooking function are a vacuum sealer and vacuum bags.

• Recommended vacuum sealer type: chamber vacuum sealer. Only this type of vacuum sealer can vacuum pack liquids.

• Use vacuum bags correct for Sousvide cooking function.

• Do not reuse vacuum bags.

Page 30

www.aeg.com30

• Put the food in one layer of the vacuum bags to get an even cooking result.

• For faster and more even cooking of the food, set the vacuum degree to the highest possible.

• To guarantee a safe closing of the vacuum bag, make sure that the area subject to the seal is clean.

General hints and tips for the function SousVide Cooking:

• To keep the cooking steam, always keep the appliance door closed when you use Sous-vide cooking function.

• Open the door carefully after cooking because there is steam cumulated in the appliance.

• You can add oil and spices to the food in accordance to your taste. Oil prevents the food from sticking to the vacuum bag.

• Season the food moderately in the beginning as there are no evaporative losses of flavour volatiles.

• To evaporate alcohol from liquids, heat up and boil the liquids before vacuum packing.

• You can replace the raw garlic by the garlic powder.

• You can be replace olive oil by a neutral kind of oil.

• For faster and more even cooking of the food, keep the vacuum degree as high as possible (99.9%).

• Cooking times are recommendations and can be different in accordance to your preferences.

• The cooking times in the cooking tables are for dishes for 4 people. If the quantity of the food is higher, the cooking times can be longer.

• If the dimension of the food is different than the cooking tables show, the cooking time can change.

• Put the vacuum bags on the grid without overlapping when using more bags.

12.4 SousVide Cooking: Meat

• Look at the tables to prevent undercooking. Do not use meat portions of a larger thickness than the tables show.

• The cooking times in the tables are the minimum necessary times. The cooking time can be increased in accordance to personal preferences.

• Use only boneless meat to avoid damages to the vacuum bags.

• For the poultry fillets to taste better, fry them on the skin side before and after vacuum packing.

12.15 Baking

• Your oven can bake or roast differently to the appliance you had before. Adapt your usual settings (temperature, cooking times) and shelf positions to the values in the tables.

• The manufacturer recommends that you use the lower temperature the first time.

• If you cannot find the settings for a special recipe, look for the one that is almost the same.

• You can extend baking times by 10 –

In case raw milk is used, heat up the milk to the boiling point and let it cool down to 40 °C. Mix the yogurt afterwards with the milk and fill it in yogurt jars.

• Cakes and pastries at different heights do not always brown equally at first. If this occurs, do not change the temperature setting. The differences equalize during the baking procedure.

• With longer baking times, you can deactivate the oven approximately 10 minutes before the end of the baking time and then use the residual heat.

When you cook frozen food, the trays in the oven can twist during baking. When the trays become cold again, the distortions are gone.

12.23 Roasting

• Use heat-resistant ovenware to roast (refer to the instructions of the manufacturer).

• You can roast large roasting joints directly in the deep pan (if present) or on the wire shelf above the deep pan.

• Roast lean meats in the roasting tin with the lid. This keeps the meat more succulent.

• All types of meat that can be browned or have crackling can be roasted in the roasting tin without the lid.

• To prevent the meat juices or fat from burning onto the pan, put some liquid into the deep pan.

• If necessary, turn the roast (after 1/2 2/3 of the cooking time).

• Baste large roasts and poultry with their juices several times during roasting. This gives better roasting results.

• You can deactivate the appliance approximately 10 minutes before the end of the roasting time, and use the residual heat.

• We recommend that you cook meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above in the appliance.
