Main Oven Cookery Notes To prepare meat and poultry for roasting in your fan oven. (a) Wipe the meat or poultry, dry well and weigh it. Meat which has been stored in a refrigerator should be allowed to come to room temperature before cooking, and frozen meat or poultry must be completely defrosted before placing in the oven. (b) The weight of any stuffing used should be added before calculating the cooking time. (c) Place meat/poultry in a meat pan . Small joints weighing less than 1.
Using the Main Oven for Other Functions 90 “SLOW” Setting This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming plates for short periods. Extra care should be taken when warming bone china, as it may be damaged in a hot oven. DO NOT place food or plates directly on the oven floor as this could damage both the oven lining and the plates which are being warmed. Advantages of “SLOW” cooking are: The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.
Care and Cleaning 90 TURN OFF THE MAIN SWITCH BEFORE CLEANING. BEFORE SWITCHING ON AGAIN, ENSURE THAT ALL CONTROLS ARE IN THE OFF POSITION. NEVER USE BIOLOGICAL WASHING POWDER, HARSH ABRASIVES, SCOURING PADS, AEROSOL CLEANERS OR OVEN CHEMICAL CLEANERS OF ANY KIND UNLESS SPECIFIED BELOW. Cleaning materials to avoid 1. Plastic or nylon pads / scourers, these may scratch the surface. 2. Household abrasive powders. 3. Oven chemical cleaners, aerosols and oven pads.
Care and Cleaning Grill Remove the grill pan and the wire grid food support, it is best to wash these items immediately after use to prevent stains from being burnt on when used again. Wipe out the Grill compartment, use a fine steel wool soap pad to remove stubborn stains from the grill runners the grill deflector plate and the floor of the compartment. Control panel Wipe over the control panel with a damp cloth and polish with a dry cloth.
Care and Cleaning Oven liners The surface of the ‘Credaclean’ oven liners are treated on the mottled face with a special vitreous enamel which absorbs cooking soils. At temperatures of 220oC (425oF) or above, the special surface enables these soils to be slowly destroyed. The higher the temperature the more effective it is. In most cases normal cooking operation at this temperature will permit this cleaning operation to proceed during cooking.
