Chef's recommendations
Recommendations
Stir occasionally when heating up purees, creamy
soups and thick sauces.
For preheating, select a heat setting between
10and 12.
When cooking with the lid on, reduce the heat as
soon as you see steam escaping. The cooking
result is not affected by the steam escaping.
After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until
you serve the food.
To cook with the pressure cooker, follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Do not cook food for too long, otherwise nutrients
will be lost. The short-term timer can be used to set
the optimum cooking time.
For a healthier result, ensure that the oil does not
smoke.
To brown food, fry it in small batches.
Cookware may reach high temperatures while the
food is cooking. Use oven gloves.
You can find recommendations for energy-efficient
cooking in the section entitled ~ "Energy-saving
advice" on page 8.
Cooking table
The table shows which heat setting is suitable for each
type of food. The cooking time may vary depending on
the type, weight, thickness and quality of the food.
