Sophisticated starters, tasty soups and salads, simple and elaborate side dishes, delicious fish and meat dishes, delectable desserts, moist cakes, sweet and savory pastries and bread that’s as good as your baker’s - all this is quick and easy to prepare with your combination steam oven. All recipes serve 4, unless otherwise indicated.
Why cook with steam? Cooking with steam is one of the healthiest cooking methods. The steam envelops the food and exerts no pressure on it, so the vitamins and minerals are largely preserved. Delicate fish, moist and tender meat and delicious vegetables can only be achieved with steam. Custard, terrines and dumplings are also wonderfully simple to make using the steam oven.
How does the steam work? 1. The water tank is filled with fresh tap water. 2. When the appliance is switched on, a valve opens. Water from the tank is delivered into the evaporator dish at the bottom of the cooking compartment. 3. Under the evaporator dish, there is a heating element which heats up. 4. The water in the evaporator dish begins to boil and evaporates. 5. The food is enveloped by the steam and cooked gently without pressure.
True Convection and Steam Combined With the Steam Convection mode, Steam and True Convection are used together. This combination is particularly suitable for cooking meat and baking bread and rolls. Thanks to the combination of True Convection and Steam, roasts get crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Pastries get a nice, shiny surface and do not dry out. For the reheating, proofing and defrosting settings, True Convection and Steam are specially adjusted to the relevant type of heating.
Information and tips • Cooking Times Unless otherwise indicated, the cooking times in the recipes are for food inserted into a cold oven. • Shelf Position When steaming, you can insert the pans at any shelf position. Note: If you are using the perforated baking pan, you must always place a baking pan underneath. This will catch any dripping liquid. • Ovenware Always use steam and heat-resistant ovenware. Silicone baking molds are not suitable for use when combining True Convection and Steam.
Accessories Perforated Baking Pan - Full size: Ideal for steaming fish or large quantities of vegetables, for extracting juice from berries and much more. Note: Always insert the baking pan underneath. The dripping liquid is then collected here and the oven is kept clean. Baking Pan - Full Size: Use the baking pan for tray baking and for collecting dripping liquid. Wire Rack: Place ovenware on the wire rack.
