If two baking trays with pastries or biscuits
are inserted into the oven at the same time,
the trays must be swapped and turned
around after about 2/3 of the baking time.
When roasting:
Do not roast joints smaller than 1 kg.
Smaller pieces could dry out when roasting.
Dark meat, which is to be well done on the
outside but remain medium or rare inside,
must be roasted at a higher temperature
(200°C-250°C).
White meat, poultry and fish, on the other
hand, require a lower temperature (150°C-
175°C).
The ingredients for a sauce or gravy should
only be added to the roasting pan right at the
beginning if the cooking time is short.
Otherwise add them in the last half hour.
You can use a spoon to test whether the
meat is cooked: if it cannot be depressed, it
is cooked through.
Roast beef and fillet, which is to remain pink
inside, must be roasted at a higher temper-
ature in a shorter time.
If cooking meat directly on the oven shelf, in-
sert the roasting pan in the shelf level below.

Leave the joint to stand for at least 15 mi-
nutes, so that the meat juices do not run out.
To reduce the build up of smoke in the oven,
it is recommended to pour a little water in the
roasting pan.
To prevent condensation forming, add water
several times.
The plates can be kept warm in the oven at
minimum temperature until serving.
Important! Do not line the oven with
aluminium foil and do not place baking
trays, pots, etc. on the oven floor, as the
heat that builds up will damage the oven
enamel.
