General notes This section contains general information. You will find more detailed information about particular foods and how to cook them in the other sections. Steam cooking The advantages of cooking with steam Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is not immersed in water. Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food also keeps its fresh, original colour.
General notes – Place the cooking containers on the rack or on a suitable tray, and not on the oven floor. – Ensure that there is a gap between the upper rim of the container and the top of the cooking compartment to allow sufficient steam into the container. Universal tray / Combi rack If you are using the universal tray with the rack on top, e.g. for grilling, insert the tray between the rails of the side runners and the rack will automatically slide in above them.
General notes Cooking duration In general, the cooking durations for cooking with steam are the same as for cooking food in a saucepan. More information about any factors which may affect the cooking duration is given in the relevant sections. The quantity of food does not affect the cooking duration. 1 kg of potatoes will take the same time to cook as 500 g. The durations given in the charts are guidelines only. We recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted to start with.
Steam cooking Vegetables Fresh Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual way, i.e. wash, clean and cut them up. Frozen Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted beforehand, unless they have been frozen together in a block. Frozen and fresh vegetables which take the same length of time to cook can be cooked together. Break up vegetables that have frozen together in a lump and follow instructions on the packaging regarding cooking duration.
Steam cooking Settings Automatic programmes > Vegetables > ... or Oven function > Steam cooking Temperature: 100 °C Duration: see chart The durations given in the chart are guidelines for fresh vegetables.

Steam cooking Fish Fresh Prepare fresh fish in the usual way, i.e. clean, gut and fillet. Frozen Defrost frozen fish before cooking (see "Defrosting"). Preparation Add some lemon or lime juice to fish before cooking. The citric acid helps the flesh stay firm. It is not necessary to season fish with salt when cooking with steam as this method retains the minerals which give the fish its unique flavour. Cooking containers Grease perforated containers. Place the universal tray on the lowest shelf level.
Steam cooking Duration The cooking duration depends on the thickness and the texture of the fish, and not on the weight. The thicker the fish, the longer the cooking duration. A 3 cm thick piece of fish weighing 500 g will take longer to cook than a 2 cm thick piece of fish weighing 500 g. The longer fish cooks, the firmer its flesh will become. Use the cooking durations given in the chart. If you find that the fish is not cooked sufficiently only cook it for a few minutes more.

Special applications Reheat The steam oven is very effective at reheating food gently, without drying it out or cooking it further. The food will reheat evenly and does not need to be stirred during the reheating process. You can reheat individual dishes or plated meals which have been prepared previously (e.g. meat, vegetables and potatoes). Suitable containers Small quantities can be reheated on a plate, larger quantities should be placed in a cooking container.

Special applications Defrost It is much quicker to defrost items in the steam oven than at room temperature. Temperature 60 °C is the best temperature for defrosting. Exception: 50 °C for minced meat and game Before and after defrosting Remove all packaging before defrosting. Exceptions: Leave bread, biscuits and cakes in their packaging as otherwise they will absorb moisture and become soft. Allow defrosted food to stand at room temperature after removing it from the oven.
Special applications Tips Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently thawed to take herbs and seasoning. Depending on the thickness of the fish, 2 - 5 minutes should be enough.

Food probe How it works The tip of the probe is pushed into the centre of the meat where it measures the core temperature continuously. The core temperature set will depend on how well cooked you want your meat to be and on the type of meat. The temperature can be set between 30 and 99 °C. The cooking duration will depend on the temperature in the oven compartment and the thickness of the meat. The higher the temperature and the thinner the meat, the quicker the set core temperature will be reached.
Food probe When to use it The food probe can be used with the following functions: - Combination mode - Fan plus, - Combination mode - Conventional heat - Fan plus - Fan grill - Conventional heat - Intensive bake - Cake plus - Steam cooking - Reheat Important notes about using the food probe The metal tip of the food probe must be fully inserted into the centre of the food. Do not let the metal tip touch any bones or insert it into a particularly fatty area of the meat.
Food probe Procedure ^ Prepare the meat in the usual way. ^ Insert the metal tip of the food probe fully into the food. ^ Place the food in the oven. ^ Open the connection socket for the food probe and insert the food probe into the socket as far as it will go. ^ Select the function you want. ^ Alter the recommended and / or core temperature if necessary.
Food probe Tips If you are cooking several pieces of meat together, insert the food probe in the largest piece of meat. If the food is not cooked sufficiently when the core temperature is reached, insert the food probe into another place and repeat the programme.
Roasting We recommend using Combination mode - Fan plus or Combination mode - Conventional heat for roasting. Please ensure that the grease filter is fitted in the oven. Frozen meat must be defrosted before it is cooked. Never cook from frozen. You do not need to preheat the oven for roasting. The meat is placed in a cold oven. Remove any membranes and sinews before roasting. Season to taste and dot with butter or, in the case of game, bard with rashers of streaky bacon.
Roasting Combination mode The lower the temperature in the oven, the longer the cooking duration and the more tender the result. Roast meat on the rack above the universal tray. The meat juices will collect in the tray and can then be used to make a gravy or sauce. The addition of steam prevents the surface of lean meat from drying out. Excellent results can be achieved when using 5 to 6 cooking stages for the cooking process.

Baking Fan plus For baking on several levels When using Fan plus, reduce the temperatures given for Conventional heat by about 20 °C. Conventional heat For baking traditional recipes, e.g. rich fruit cake and making soufflés. Only bake on one level at a time. Place tray bakes on the middle shelf. If using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven temperature for Conventional heat 10 °C lower than that recommended. This will not change cooking durations. Top heat Ideal for browning the topping on a dish.
Baking Combination mode The gleaming finish on bread, rolls and puff pastry is achieved by adding steam (maximum moisture, low temperature) in cooking stage 1. Browning is achieved using a high moisture level and a high temperature. The drying out phase takes place with low moisture and a high temperature. Bake part-baked rolls with 90 % moisture at the temperature given by the manufacturer on the packaging.
Baking Baking tips Cakes, pizzas and chips etc. should be cooked until golden, not dark brown. Remove the grease filter from the back wall. Otherwise results can be uneven. (Exception: Flans with a deep, fresh fruit filling, e.g. plums or damsons, pizza with lots of topping). Bakeware Dark-coloured tins are best for baking. These conduct the heat more swiftly to the mixture. Shiny metal tins reflect heat so cakes take longer to cook and do not brown evenly.
Baking Frozen food When baking deep frozen products such as chips, croquettes, cakes, pizza and baguettes, use the lowest temperature quoted on the manufacturer's packaging. Cook large frozen items e.g. cakes, pizzas and baguettes on baking parchment on the rack. Baking large frozen items on the baking tray or the universal tray can cause the metal to distort to such an extent that the tray cannot be taken out of the oven.

Grilling The appliance door must remain shut during grilling, as otherwise the controls will get hot. Danger of burning. Do not use the food probe when using Full grill, Economy grill or Combination mode - Grill. Use: – Full grill / Economy grill for thin cuts and for browning baked dishes. – Fan grill for thicker items, e.g. rolled meat, poultry pieces. Use the rack above the universal tray for grilling. Grill thick items, e.g. half a chicken, in the middle and thin items, e.g.
Grilling Tips Marinate or add a little oil if necessary to lean meat. Do not use other types of fat as they can burn and cause smoke. It is best to grill food of a similar thickness at the same time so that the grilling time for each item does not vary too greatly. To grill thicker pieces of food more gradually after an initial high temperature, continue grilling at a lower temperature setting or use a lower shelf runner to allow the food to cook through to the centre.
