• We recommend cooking meat and fish weighing 1 kg and above in the oven . • To prevent escaping meat juices or fat from burning on to the pan, we recommend placing some liquid in the roasting pan. • If required, 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 will give better roasting results. • You can switch the oven off about 10 minutes before the end of the roasting time, in order to utilise the residual heat.

– 1 cube of fresh yeast or 2 packets of dry yeast – 650 ml milk – 15 g salt Place flour and salt in a large bowl. Dissolve the yeast in tepid milk and add to the flour. Knead all ingredients into a workable dough. Depending on the quali- ties of the flour, a little more milk may be required to achieve a workable dough. Leave the dough to rise until it doubles in volume. Cut the dough into two, make into two long loaves and place on the baking tray which has been greased or covered with naking parchment.
Sieve the flour into a mixing bowl, make a hollow in the centre. Cut up the yeast, place it in the hollow with the milk and a little of the sugar and stir in the flour from around the edge, sprinkle with flour, leave to rise in a warm place until the flour sprinkled on the mixture is showing cracks. Put the rest of the sugar on the edge of the flour. Knead all ingredients into a workable yeast dough. Leave the dough to rise in a warm place until it is about double the size.
