LOW TEMPERATURE

COOKING INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the cost saving convenience

of Low Temperature Cooking.

In 1968, Alto-Shaam invented the first

automatic, commercial cook and hold oven

featuring the principle of Halo Heat. The

heating method provided by Halo Heat low

temperature cooking and holding ovens

consists of an electric thermal cable that

encircles the entire cooking and holding

chamber. This creates a gentle blanket or

HALO of radiant heat — surrounding food

with a consistent and uniform temperature

with no air movement inside the oven

compartment. This gentle heating concept

cooks at low temperatures and at a high

level of humidity to preserve product

moisture, flavor, and nutrition. Halo Heat

ovens are designed to convert automatically

from a cooking temperature to a holding

temperature where the product can remain

until it is ready to be served.

Halo Heat is an entirely different system

of cooking. Utilizing this uniform heat

source, Halo Heat dramatically reduces

meat shrinkage; provides natural enzyme

(aging) action for more tender, flavorful

meat; and preserves natural juices along

with nutritional values in all foods. Halo

Heat cooking reduces energy cost, cuts back

on labor and handling, and solves kitchen

space problems. There is no mechanical

ventilation or oven hood necessary in most

areas so the ovens can be moved wherever

they are needed.

Read this booklet carefully. Halo Heat is

a cooking system that requires minimal care

once you have learned the basic principles.

For best results with many products, we

recommend you start your cooking cycle the

evening before — for serving the next day.

In many areas, off-peak power rates are also

lower at night.

If anything you cook in a Halo Heat low

temperature cooking and holding oven

doesn’t meet your highest standards of

quality, please contact one of our food

service professionals for help. Usually, only

a minor change in procedure is required.

EAT AND NUTRITION

M

Meat plays a significant role in the diet;

therefore, one of the primary goals in food

preparation is proper nutrition. Meat is one of the

best sources of protein; is a rich source of B

vitamins such as thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin;

and includes fats, carbohydrates, minerals,

pigments, enzymes and water.

All of these elements are affected by cooking,

but over-heating destroys many of them. Low

temperature Halo Heat cooking helps preserve

unstable, heat-sensitive vitamins and nutrients.

A report on the Nutrient Analysis of Roast Beef,

conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Stout

…

in July 1971, concluded, “

Alto-Shaam cooking method results in lower

moisture losses. Even after a 24 hour holding

period, the Alto-Shaam product is nutritionally

equal to, and possibly better than beef roast cooked

in a conventional oven and removed immediately

after cooking.”

Fat contributes greatly to the flavor of meat.

During the cooking process, fat not only melts, but

also changes chemically. With low temperature

cooking there is less chemical change and less fat

melt resulting in a more flavorful finished product.

it is apparent that

Low temperature cooking does not destroy these

enzymes and, particularly in the hold cycle, creates

this natural chemical action to tenderize or age the

meat right in the oven. For this reason, it is

important to use fresh beef and it is essential to

allow the product to remain in the hold cycle for

at least the minimum amount of time suggested

in the individual procedures. The longer meat is

left in the hold cycle the more tender it becomes,

making the purchase of more expensive, aged

meat unnecessary.

Meat is seventy to seventy-five percent water.

High temperatures cause this water to evaporate

during cooking resulting in loss of product

moisture. Cooking at low temperatures in a Halo

Heat oven retains the maximum amount of water

content resulting in a juicier finished product and

an extended holding life.

Along with better nutrition, a more tender

finished product, less shrinkage and higher

moisture content, meat will not require the addition

of as much salt as needed with conventional

cooking methods. Natural flavors are preserved.

This is a significant factor in today’s health

conscious diets.

The enzymes found in meat break down the

tissues and act as natural tenderizing agents. A

premium price is paid for aged meats where this

enzyme action has already started, however;

enzymes are destroyed by high temperatures.

SHRINKAGE CONTROL AND COOKING TIME

THERE ARE TWO MAJOR FACTORS CONTROLLING

EAT SHRINKAGE OR COOKING LOSSES.

M

1. Temperature at which meat is cooked:

The higher the temperature at which meat is cooked

the more shrinkage will result. Over-cooked meat

also results in higher losses. Higher temperatures

and over-cooking draws moisture to the surface and

this moisture evaporates or drips out of the meat.

2. Internal temperature of the meat:

Like over-cooking, as meat is brought to a higher

internal temperature shrinkage is increased. For

these two reasons, it is suggested most cuts of red

meat be cooked at 250°F (121°C) and that all cooking

be based on internal product temperature. The use

of a thermometer is encouraged.

THERE ARE FOUR MAJOR FACTORS INVOLVED IN
DETERMINING COOKING TIMES FOR MEAT:

1. The degree of aging on the meat:

Aged meat will cook faster, shrink more, and has a
much shorter holding life than fresh meat.

2. Internal temperature before cooking:

Meat should be placed in a preheated oven directly
from a refrigerated temperature of 38° to 40°F
(3° to 4°C). Meat cooked from a frozen state will
require approximately one and one-half to two times
the normal cooking time. In addition, freezing
ruptures tissue cells creating additional moisture
loss during the cooking process and will result in
more shrinkage.

3. Desired degree of doneness:

The higher the degree of internal temperature
required, the longer the necessary cooking time.
Cooking times in this guideline are based on the
most popular internal product temperatures.

4. Quantity and quality of product.

PREVENTING BACTERIA GROWTH

The surface of raw meat may become contaminated

in processing, handling by the butcher or chef, or by

other means. Food contamination can also be caused

by unsanitary personal hygiene and work habits,

unclean slicers, knives, and probes, or by faulty

operational procedures. It is important, therefore, that

0.05 = 5 % 0.05 = 5 %

sanitary procedures be followed at all times during

food preparation and handling. This is your main

protection in guarding against food contamination. For

additional information see the Cle anin g an d

LOW TEMPERATURE COOKING INTRODUCTION

LABOR AND EQUIPMENT COST REDUCTION

Halo Heat ovens are easy to operate and maintain. After the raw product is placed in the oven and the

controls are set, there is no need to check, stir, or adjust the time or the temperature. Minimal time is spent

attending the product during cooking. This advantage, combined with the automatic conversion to the hold

cycle, frees key personnel to concentrate on other tasks including final product and presentation.

When cooking in a Halo Heat oven at a

temperature of 250°F (121°C), outside venting and

expensive exhaust hoods are not necessary in

most areas. Kitchens remain cooler, lowering

energy costs by reducing the exchange of heated

air. Because the ovens do not need outside

venting, they can be put almost anywhere — in

the corner of the kitchen, on a buffet line, or in a

banquet room. The ovens can also be built into a

counter or to save space, can be stacked in

combination with another Halo Heat oven or

holding cabinet of the same or similar

dimensions.

Cooking at low temperatures also reduces

cleaning time. Most food does not normally

carbonize or burn on the interior of the oven.

OVEN CHARACTERISTICS

The oven is equipped with a special, low-heat­density, heating cable. Through the Halo Heat
concept, the heating cable is mounted against the
walls of the cooking and holding compartment to
provide an evenly applied heat source, controlled
by an oven sensor. The design and operational
characteristics of the unit eliminates the need for a
moisture pan or a heat circulating fan. Through
even heat application, the food product is cooked
evenly and provides the ability to hold foods for
longer periods of time.

3. When cooking at 250°F (121°C), it takes

approximately one hour for the cooking

temperature to decrease to the selected

holding temperature. During this one hour

time period, the product will continue to cook.

4. The cooking times in this guide are based on

meat taken directly from a refrigerated

temperature of 38° to 40°F (3.3° to 4.4°C), and

placed in a preheated oven. Adjustments must

be made for cooking products at other than

refrigerated temperatures.

5. It is recommended the oven door remain

closed during the cooking cycle. Opening the

door will only increase the length of time

necessary to cook the product.

6. Puncturing an item with any sharp instrument

may introduce bacteria inside the product.

Avoid using a fork to handle products, and

always use standard sanitary methods when

handling any food item.

11. Since there is no air
movement inside the
Halo Heat

®

low
temperature cooking and
holding oven, condensation will
form on the inside of the door during
operation and may leak out of the oven door
vents. This is a normal operating condition,
however; any condensation spilling on the
floor should be periodically wiped as a safety
precaution. There is an External Drip Tray
included as standard with most ovens.

12. Drip pan overflow is a condition caused by
cooking some cuts of beef to an internal
temperature in excess of 130°F (54°C). The
External Drip Tray will help alleviate some of
this overflow problem. There is also an extra
large drip pan available as an option for the
1000-TH series ovens.

13. Overflow may also be caused by overloading
the oven compartment. DO NOT OVERL OAD
TH E OVEN. Follow the recommended load
capacities listed in each individual procedure.

14. For best results, many products should be
cooked on an overnight cook-and-hold basis.
Consult individual procedures for this
recommendation.

7. Use a thermometer to check the internal

temperature of a product. Be certain to

sanitize the thermometer before each use.

8. Aged meat will cook faster, shrink more, and

cannot be held as long as fresh meat. Because

of the tenderizing capabilities of the oven, aged

meat or tenderizing agents such as M.S.G. are

not necessary, and are not recommended.

9. When cooking full loads, never cook below the

second shelf spacing from the bottom of the

oven compartment.

10. Fully clean the oven interior, drip pan, shelves,

and side racks on a daily basis.

PR O T EC TI NG STAINLESS S TE EL SURFACES

It is important to guard against

corrosion in the care of

stainless steel surfaces.
Harsh, corrosive, or
inappropriate chemicals can

completely destroy the
protective surface layer of stainless steel.
Abrasive pads, steel wool, or metal implements
will abrade surfaces causing damage to this
protective coating and will eventually result in
areas of corrosion. Even water, particularly hard
water that contains high to moderate
concentrations of chloride, will cause oxidation
and pitting that result in rust and corrosion. In
addition, many acidic foods spilled and left to
remain on metal surfaces are contributing factors
that will corrode surfaces.

Proper cleaning agents, materials, and
methods are vital to maintaining the appearance
and life of this appliance. Spilled foods should be
removed and the area wiped as soon as possible
but at the very least, a minimum of once a day.
Always thoroughly rinse surfaces after using a
cleaning agent and wipe standing water as quickly
as possible after rinsing.

C L EA NING A GE NT S

Use non-abrasive cleaning products designed for
use on stainless steel surfaces. Cleaning agents
must be chloride-free compounds and must not
contain quaternary salts. Never use hydrochloric
acid (muriatic acid) on stainless steel surfaces.
Always use the proper cleaning agent at the
manufacturer's recommended strength.
Contact your local cleaning supplier for
product recommendations.

C L EA NING M ATE RI AL S

The cleaning function can usually be accomplished
with the proper cleaning agent and a soft, clean
cloth. When more aggressive methods must be
employed, use a non-abrasive scouring pad on
difficult areas and make certain to scrub with the
visible grain of surface metal to avoid surface
scratches. Never use wire brushes, metal scouring
pads, or scrapers to remove food residue.

The cleanliness and appearance of this equipment will contribute considerably to operating

efficiency and savory, appetizing food. There is an important relationship between

leanliness and food flavor and aroma. Good equipment that is kept clean works

c

better and lasts longer.

Under normal circumstances, this oven should provide you with long and trouble-

free service. There is no preventative maintenance required, however, the following

Equipment Care Guide will maximize the potential life and trouble-free operation of this oven.

2. CLEAN THE EXTERIOR OF THE CABINET

WITH A STAINLESS STEEL POLISH.

To help maintain the protective film coating on
polished stainless steel, clean the exterior of the
cabinet with a cleaner recommended for
stainless steel surfaces. Spray the cleaning

1. CLEAN DAILY

Disconnect the oven from the power source.
Remove all detachable items such as wire
shelves, side racks, and drip pans. Clean these
items separately. Clean the interior metal
surfaces of the oven with a damp, clean cloth
and any good commercial detergent or grease
solvent at the recommended strength. Use a
plastic scouring pad or oven cleaner for
difficult areas. Rinse carefully to remove all
residue and wipe dry.

agent on a clean cloth and wipe with the grain
of the stainless steel.

3. CHECK OVERALL CONDITION

OF THE OVEN ONCE A MONTH.

Check the oven once a month for physical
damage and loose screws. Correct any
problems before they begin to interfere with the
operation of the oven.

4. CHECK THE COOLING FAN

IN THE OVEN CONTROL AREA.

NOTE: Avoid the use of

abrasive cleaning
compounds, chloride
based cleaners, or
cleaners containing
quaternary salts.
Never use hydrochloric acid (muriatic
acid) on stainless steel. Always follow
appropriate state or local health
(hygiene) regulations regarding all
applicable cleaning and sanitation
requirements for equipment.

While the oven is warm, check that the cooling
fan in the oven control area is functioning.
The fan is located on the back of the unit,
toward the top.
