Advice for steam cooking

• Pasta and rice: upon reaching 100°C, the cooking time will be the same as with cooking on a hob. Place the pasta or rice in a metal tray and cover with around a centimetre of water. For best results when cooking rice, place a lid on the container or cover with aluminium foil. This procedure allows the rice to absorb all the water, and it can then be served directly to the table.
• Eggs: these may be boiled, scrambled or poached by using the steam function at 100°C. To obtain perfect boiled eggs, place them on the perforated tray and cook for 4-6 minutes for soft boiled eggs and 8-10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs. For scrambled eggs, place the beaten eggs in a metal tray together with milk, butter and seasoning. Cover the tray with aluminium foil. Mix every couple of minutes using a fork. For poached eggs, pour boiling water into the metal tray with a drop of vinegar and steam cook for around 4-5 minutes.
• Vegetables: steam cooking vegetables gives excellent results. They maintain their colour, flavour and nutritional properties. For dense vegetables such as potatoes, turnips and parsnips, cook at 100°C for the same length of time you would boil them on a hob. For broccoli and carrots, cook for 6 minutes if you want them to remain firm, or 10 minutes if you want them to be softer.

- Fish: due to the delicate nature of fish, steaming gives excellent results. For oily fish such as salmon or trout, cook at 100°C for around 5 minutes. For white fish such as cod or haddock, cook at 80°C for around 5 minutes. If you are cooking different foods, all fish must be cooked in the perforated tray which must be placed on the bottom shelf of the oven to avoid liquid from the fish dripping onto other food products.

• Meat: casseroles and curries are ideal for steam cooking. Prepare the casserole as for normal oven cooking. Place it in a metal tray, cover with a lid or aluminium foil, and cook for between 45 minutes and 3 hours depending on the cut of meat used.
• Thin soups: steam cooking allows flavours to develop perfectly with minimum effort, as the liquids will not boil over. For vegetable soup with the correct consistency, first steam the vegetables, then add broth and steam cook at 100°C. The steam function is also ideal for preparing large quantities for later use.

• Soups: Thicker soups are also easy and quick to prepare. Place the soup in a metal tray, cover with a lid or aluminium foil and steam cook at 100°C for the same time you would cook it in a microwave oven. To obtain a creamy texture stir halfway through cooking.

• Reheating: the steam cooking function will not dry foods out and gives a moister result. A previously prepared home-cooked meal, covered with aluminium foil, will take around 10-12 minutes to reheat. Ready meals will require approximately double the time indicated on the package.

• Defrosting: it is possible to use the steam function to defrost foods. Times vary, but defrosting with the steam cooking function takes around half the time necessary for covered foods left to defrost at room temperature.
• Peeling peppers and tomatoes: this is very easy to do when using the steam function. Use a knife to cut a small cross in the skin of the tomato, and steam cook for 1 minute. Peppers have tougher skin, and may require up to 4 minutes to soften it sufficiently for peeling.
• Chocolate: this can be melted using the steam cooking function. Place the chocolate in a metal tray, cover with aluminium foil and steam cook for 1 minute. Unlike other methods, chocolate is unlikely to burn in the steam oven.
• Hot towels: ideal for facial treatments, a close shave or for use after a meal, these are easy to prepare using the steam cooking function. Moisten a towel with water, roll it up and steam it for 1 minute.

Combination cooking functions

Combination cooking functions are ideal for preparing moist cakes and bread and for tender roast meats.

Combination functions list

The combination of the fan, the circulaire heating element and the steam is particularly suitable for preparing roast meats, chicken and baked goods such as bread and leavened sweets.

Traditional functions are always preceded by a preheating stage, which allows the appliance to heat up to cooking temperature.

The temperature reached flashes to indicate that this stage is in progress.

When preheating finishes, the temperature reached remains lit steadily, a buzzer sounds and cooking proceeds automatically.

With traditional cooking, food can be placed in the oven immediately or after preheating, as the user prefers.

Cooking can be interrupted at any time by pressing and holding the function knob for at least 3 seconds, or by opening the door.

Traditional functions list

Circulaire

The combination of the fan and the circulaire heating element (incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook different foods on several levels, as long as they need the same temperatures and type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures instant and even distribution of heat. It will be possible, for instance, to cook fish, vegetables and biscuits simultaneously (on different levels) without odours and flavours mingling.

Grill

The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling results above all for thin and medium thickness meat and, in combination with the rotisserie (where fitted), gives the food an even browning at the end of cooking. Ideal for grilled cheese and gratinating. This function enables large quantities of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly.

Eco

This function is particularly suitable for cooking on a single shelf with low energy consumption.

Ideal for cooking meat, fish and vegetables. It is not recommended for leavened foods.

To obtain maximum energy savings and reduce cooking times, it is recommended to place food in the oven without preheating.

When using the ECO function, avoid opening the door during cooking.

Cooking (and preheating) times are longer with the ECO function.

Static

As the heat comes from above and below at the same time, this system is particularly suitable for certain types of food. Traditional cooking, also known as static cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Ideal for pies, bread and casseroles. It is also suitable for fatty meat such as duck and goose.

Fan assisted

The operation of the fan, combined with traditional cooking, ensures consistent cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect for roasts.

Fan with grill

The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave generated by the grill, grilling perfectly even very thick cuts of meat such as steaks, pork chops, etc.

Circulaire + fan + lower element

Fan assisted cooking is combined with the heat coming from below and allows you to brown food slightly at the same time. Ideal for pies/flans, quiches and pizza.

Turbo

The combination of fan assisted cooking and traditional cooking allows different foods to be cooked on several levels extremely quickly and efficiently, without odours and flavours mingling. Perfect for large volumes that call for intense cooking.

To obtain a rotisserie effect, set the temperature to maximum. When the appliance reaches maximum temperature, return the temperature to normal. This procedure seals the liquids inside the meat, and reduces shrinkage.

3.5 Cooking advice

General advice

• It is not possible to shorten cooking times by increasing the temperature (the food could be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside).
• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• The first few times you use the appliance, until acquiring sufficient confidence and knowledge of the required cooking times, we suggest setting slightly longer cooking times and testing the food quickly a little before cooking ends. If it is not ready, it is anyway possible to continue to cook it using the remaining cooking time and without having to add more water to the reservoir. If, however, the food is already cooked, it will be possible to immediately stop cooking and drain the residual water from the reservoir.

Advice for cooking meat

• Cooking times vary according to the thickness and quality of the food and to consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting meat, or simply press on the roast with a spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it needs another few minutes cooking.

Advice for steam cooking

• Cooking times depend on the density of foods and not their quantity. For example, one piece of broccoli will take the same time as 20 florets. Increasing the quantity of a casserole also increases its density, and so the cooking time will also increase.
• Where possible, use a perforated container to allow the steam to circulate around the food from all sides.
• Steam cooking significantly reduces the migration of flavours between different foodstuffs. Nevertheless, always ensure foods like fish cooked in a perforated tray are placed at the bottom of the oven.
• If the steam is likely to change the consistency of the foods being cooked (e.g. casseroles, puddings) always cover them with aluminium foil.

Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and biscuits

• Use dark metal moulds: They help to absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time depend on the quality and consistency of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked right through: At the end of the cooking time, insert a wooden cocktail stick into the highest point of the dessert. If the dough does not stick to the cocktail stick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes out of the oven, on the next occasion reduce the set temperature by about 10^ C, selecting a longer cooking time if necessary.

Advice for defrosting

• Place frozen foods without their packaging in a lidless container on the first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on the second level and a tray on the first level. In this way, the liquid from the defrosting food drains away from the food.

To save energy

• Reduce any opening of the door to a minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean at all times.
