Instructions for Use

The steam evaporates in the cookware when roasting. 
Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Shiny roasting dishes made from stainless steel or 
aluminium reflect heat like a mirror and are therefore 
not particularly suitable. The meat cooks more slowly 
and will not brown so much. Use a higher temperature 
and/or a longer cooking time.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for your 
roasting cookware.
Roasting in uncovered cookware 
It is best to use a deep roasting tin/dish for roasting 
poultry and meat. Place the tin/dish onto the wire rack. 
If you do not have any suitable cookware, use the 
universal pan.
Braising in covered cookware 
When preparing food with covered cookware, the 
cooking compartment remains considerably cleaner. 
Ensure that the lid fits well and closes properly. Place 
the cookware onto the wire rack.
The distance between the meat and the lid must be at 
least 3 cm. The meat may rise.
Very hot steam may escape when opening the lid after 
cooking. Lift the lid at the rear, so that the hot steam 
can escape away from you.
If necessary, braise the meat first by searing it. Add 
water, wine, vinegar or a similar liquid to the braising 
liquid. A covering at least 2 cm deep should be applied 
to the base of the cookware.
The steam evaporates in the cookware when roasting. 
Carefully pour in more liquid if required.
Recommended setting values
In the table, you can find the ideal heating type for 
poultry and meat. Temperature and cooking time 
depend on the quantity, composition and temperature 
of the food. Different settings ranges are indicated for 
this reason. Try using the lower values at first. You can 
increase the temperature next time if necessary.
The setting values are based on the assumption that 
unstuffed, chilled, ready-to-roast poultry and meat are 
placed into a cold cooking compartment. By doing so, 
you can make energy savings of up to 20 per cent. If 
you preheat the oven, the indicated cooking times will 
be reduced by several minutes.
In the table, you can find specifications for poultry and 
meat with default values for the weight. If you wish to 
prepare heavier poultry or meat, use the lower 
temperature in every case. If roasting several joints, use 
the weight of the heaviest piece as a basis for 
determining the cooking time. The individual pieces 
should be approximately equal in size.
A general rule: the larger the poultry or piece of meat is, 
the lower the cooking temperature and the longer the 
cooking time.
Turn the poultry and meat after approx. 
^ to Z of the 
indicated time.
Remove unused accessories from the cooking 
compartment. This will achieve the best possible 
cooking results and energy savings of up to 20 per 
cent.
Cooking time calculation (e. g. 20+35): 
Please calculate the cooking time with 20 minutes per 
500 g meat + 35 minutes additional time. For 1,5 kg 
the calculated cooking time would be 95 minutes.
Cooking time range (e. g. 10-15): 
The food is done within the stated minutes.
