A WORD ON INDUCTION COOKING

Induction cooking is an advanced, efficient and affordable cooking technology. It works with the help of electromagnetic vibrations and transfers the heat directly to the pot instead of heating it indirectly via the glass surface. The glass only gets hot because the pot heats it up.

Cooking pot Magnetic circuit Glass ceramic plate Induction coil Induction current

OPERATION

Touch Controls

• The controls respond to touch, so you don't need to apply any pressure.
• Use the ball of your finger, not its tip.
• You will hear a beep each time a touch is retgistered.
• Make sure the controls are always clean, dry, and that there is no object (e.g. a utensil or a cloth) covering them. Even a thin film of water may make the controls difficult to operate.

COOKING TIPS

WARNING

Risk of fire! Take special care when deep-frying as the oil and fat heat up very quickly. At very high temperatures, oil and grease can ignite spontaneously and they therefore pose an enormous fire risk.

Tips for cooking

• Reduce the heat when the food starts to cook.
• Using a pot lid reduces the preparation time and saves energy by retaining the heat.
• Minimise the amount of water or fat to reduce preparation time.
• Start the cooking process with a high heat setting and reduce the heat as soon as the food has heated up completely.

Simmering, cooking rice

• When simmering, the contents of the pot are cooked below the boiling point at about 85^ . Bubbles occasionally rise to the surface of the cooking liquid. Simmering is the key to delicious soups and delicate stews, as it allows the flavour to develop without overcooking the food. You should also prepare egg-based and flour-thickened sauces below the boiling point.
• Preparing rice using the absorption method may require a higher power setting to ensure that the rice cooks in the recommended time.

Searing steak

1. Let the meat rest at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
2. Heat a frying pan.
3. Rub both sides of the steak with oil. Drizzle some of the oil into the hot pan and then place the steak in it.
4. Turn the steak over only once during searing. The length of searing depends on the thickness of the steak and how well done you want it to be in the end. The time can vary from 2-8 minutes per side. Press on the steak (for example with a fork or cooking spoon) to check how cooked through it is. The firmer it feels, the more cooked through it is.
5. Then place the steak on a warm plate for a few minutes to rest and tenderise.

Stir-frying food

1. Select an induction-compatible shallow wok or large pan.
2. Have all the ingredients and accessories ready. Stir-frying should be quick. If you have large quantities of food, fry them in portions and not all at once.
3. Preheat the pan briefly and add two teaspoons of oil.
4. Fry the meat first and take it out and keep it warm.
5. Fry the vegetables while stirring. When the vegetables are hot but still firm to the bite, reduce the heat setting of the hob, place the meat in the pan and add your sauce.
6. Gently stir the ingredients together to ensure that everything is warmed up.
7. Serve the food immediately.

Note: If a non-magnetic pot (e.g. made of aluminium), a pot of the wrong size or small objects (e.g. knives, forks, keys) are placed on the induction hob, the appliance automatically switches to standby mode after one minute. The fan cools down the unit for another minute.
