Tips and tricks
The following are tips and tricks to help you when
cooking food in your appliance.
Tips for saving energy
Here are a few tips for saving energy when using the
hob and oven.
Tips on using the hob
Suitable cookware
diameter
Cookware with lids Use cookware with a flat bottom.
Less water To reduce the cooking time for e.g. vegetables and
Make sure that the diameter of the cookware is
suitable for the diameter of whichever hotplate you
are using.
You can find an overview of suitable diameters in the
section entitled “Your new appliance - the hob”.
The flame of the gas burner must not be larger than
the diameter of the cookware.
If possible, use cookware with lids to save gas.
potatoes, use less water.
81
Tips on using the oven
Several cakes It is best to bake several cakes one after the other.
The oven is still warm. This reduces the baking time
for the second cake. You can also place two cake tins
next to each other.
Using residual heat Where longer cooking times are used, you can switch
the oven off 10 minutes before the end of the cooking
time and use the residual heat to finish cooking.
Closing the appliance door Always keep the appliance door closed when it is in
operation. If you need to open the appliance door,
close it again as soon as possible. Otherwise, the
temperature will drop and the oven will need to heat
itself up again.
82
Tips for using your appliance
The following tips relate to ovenware and cooking
and explain what to do if something goes wrong.
General tips Since a lower temperature allows more even
browning.
Clean the appliance and accessories after each use,
once they have cooled down.
Always place baking tins or ovenware in the centre of
the wire rack.
Always place cookware in the middle of the hotplate
on the hob.
Boiling and frying
Cookware For dishes which require a lot of liquid, use deep-
sided pots so that they do not boil over.
The pan base must be clean, dry and flat.

Baking tips
How to confirm whether your
sponge cake is cooked
through.
The cake collapses.
The cake has risen high in the
middle and less around the
edges.
The cake is too dark on the
top.
The cake is too dry.
The bread or cake looks good
but it is streaked with water
inside.
The pastries are not evenly
browned.
Approximately 10 minutes before the end of the
baking time stated in the recipe, pierce the highest
point of the cake with a wooden skewer. If no cake
mixture sticks to the wood, the cake is ready.
Next time, use less liquid or bake at a slightly lower
temperature. Note the stirring times indicated in the
recipe.
Do not grease the edges of the baking tin. After
baking, carefully loosen the cake using a knife.
Place the cake lower in the oven and bake at a lower
temperature for slightly longer.
Make tiny holes in the finished cake using a cocktail
stick. Then pour fruit juice or an alcoholic drink over
the cake. Next time, bake at a slightly higher
temperature for less time.
Next time, use less liquid and bake at a lower
temperature for slightly longer. For cakes with a moist
topping: Pre-bake the base first. Sprinkle the base
with almonds and breadcrumbs and then pour the
topping on. Take care to follow recipes and baking
times.
Set the temperature slightly lower. Excess
greaseproof paper can affect the air circulation.
Always cut the greaseproof paper down to the size of
the baking tray.
85
Roasting and grilling
Ovenware You can use ovenware made from enamel, fireproof
glass, clay or cast iron. The baking tray is also
suitable for large roasts.
Optimum grilling surface You will achieve the best results if you use the grill
zone.
Notes on tables Temperature and baking time depend on the amount
and composition of the ingredients.
Roasting tips Depending on the size of the joint, add 2 or 3
tablespoons of liquid to lean meat and 8 to 10
tablespoons of liquid to pot roasts.
When cooking duck or goose, pierce the skin on the
underside of the wings to allow the fat to escape.
Poultry will turn out particularly crispy and brown if
you baste it towards the end of the roasting time with
butter, salted water or orange juice.
Turn pieces of meat halfway through the roasting
time.
When roasting large pieces of meat, you may find
that the amount of steam and condensation on the
oven door is more than usual. This is a normal
occurrence which has no effect on the oven's
performance. Once roasting is complete, dry the
oven door and window with a cloth.
If you are roasting on the wire rack, insert the
enamelled baking tray into shelf position 1 to collect
the run-off fat.
Grilling tips Drizzle some oil over the food to be grilled before you
place it on the wire rack under the grill.
86
Place the food to be grilled in the centre of the wire
rack. Pour a little bit of water into the enamelled
baking tray and insert this into the shelf position
underneath the grill to collect the run-off fat. Never
place it on the cooking compartment floor.
If possible, grill items should be of equal thickness.
They should be at least 2 to 3 cm thick. This ensures
that they brown evenly while also remaining
succulent.
If the food to be grilled is thin, turn it over halfway
through grilling; if it is thick, turn it over several times
during grilling. Use tongs when turning the food to
avoid piercing it and, in the case of meat, to keep the
meat juices inside the meat.
Dark meats such as lamb and beef brown better and
more quickly than light meats such as pork and veal.
Tips on using the rotary
spit
Place the joint as centrally as possible on the rotary
spit and secure it at both ends with the retaining clips.
You can also truss the joint with string. With poultry,
bind the ends of the wings underneath the back and
the thighs against the body. This will prevent them
from becoming too dark.
Pierce the skin on the underside of the wings to allow
the fat to escape.

Roasting tips The table below contains additional information on
how to be successful at roasting.
How can you tell when the
roast is ready?
The roast is too dark and the
crackling is burnt in places.
The roast looks good but the
juices are burnt.
The roast looks good, but the
juices are too clear and
watery.
Use a meat thermometer (available from specialist
retailers) or carry out a "spoon test".
Press down on the roast with a spoon. If it feels firm, it
is ready. If the spoon can be pressed in, it needs to be
cooked for a little longer.
Check the shelf position and temperature.
Next time, use a smaller roasting dish and add more
liquid.
Next time, use a larger roasting dish and add less
liquid.
