Tips for cooking and roasting

The values given in the settings table must be looked
upon as recommended values. The heat required
depends not only on the type and condition of the food,
but also the size and contents of the pot.
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and oil
will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop
unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn.
Preferably use the rear cooking zones to prepare meals,
that need longer to cook.
Preferably use the high output burners or the wok
burner for brief cooking, deep fat frying and searing of
large quantities.

Cooking in the wok

We recommend using a round-bottom wok. You can
order a high-quality wok pan as a special accessory (WP
400 001).
Only use oil that is suitable for frying at high
temperatures, for example peanut oil.
Fry the food quickly on a high heat while stirring
continuosly. Vegetables should stay crispy.
Use a heat resistant, flat ladle with a long handle to stir
the food and take it out of the wok pan.
