SLOW COOK / WARMING ZONE

Using the slow cook/warming
oven
The lower right hand electric oven pro-
vides a gentle heat suitable for warm-
ing food, warming plates or slow
cooking. It must be preheated if it is to
be used for keeping food warm.
Keeping food warm
Turn the control clockwise to the on
position and allow to preheat for 20
minutes before placing food in the
oven. If food is to be kept moist then
it is important to cover the dishes and
plates to prevent them from drying out.
This can be done using aluminium foil
if the dish doesn’t have a lid. Do not
use cling film as it cannot withstand
the heat in the oven. Some foods are
best left uncovered if you wish to main-
tain their crispness. Do not add gravy
to plated meals until serving. Carved
meat should be placed on one plate
and covered, adding just a teaspoon
of gravy for moistness. When keep-
ing plated meals warm it is recom-
mended that the food is placed on hot,
rather than cold plates.
Slow cooking
Slow cooking has always been the
best way to prepare a hot meal with
minimum preparation and maximum
time away from the kitchen. Simply
turn the slow cooker control clockwise
to the on position. The neon will illu-
minate and preheat for 20 minutes.
Always put the prepared cooking pot
centrally on the base of the oven.
Warming plates
The slow cook / warming oven can
also be used for warming plates.
Place the plates on the base of the
oven.
China plates and serving dishes
should be placed in the oven before it
is switched on, otherwise the sudden
change in temperature may result in
damage.
