The Divider - Hotpoint OK 1037ELDP.20 X/HA S Operating Instructions Manual

Recipe for BREAD:
1 dripping pan holding 1000 g max, lower level
2 dripping pans each holding 1000 g max, middle and
lower levels
Recipe for 1000 g of dough: 600 g flour, 360 g water, 11g
salt, 25 g fresh yeast (or 2 sachets of powder yeast)
Method:
• Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl.
• Dilute the yeast in lukewarm water (approximately 35
degrees).
• Make a small well in the mound of flour.
• Pour in the water and yeast mixture.
• Knead the dough by stretching and folding it over itself
with the palm of your hand for 10 minutes until it has a
uniform consistency and is not too sticky.
• Form the dough into a ball shape, place it in a large bowl
and cover it with transparent plastic wrap to prevent the
surface of the dough from drying out. Select the manual
LOW TEMPERATURE function on the oven and set the
temperature to 40°C. Place the bowl inside and leave
the dough to rise for approximately 1 hour (the dough
should double in volume).
• Cut the dough into equal sized loaves.
• Place them in the dripping pan, on a sheet of baking paper.
• Dust the loaves with flour.
• Make incisions on the loaves.
• Place the food inside the oven while it is still cold.
• Start the
BREAD cooking mode.
• Once baked, leave the loaves on one of the grill racks
until they have cooled completely.
CAKES mode
This function is ideal for cooking desserts which are made
using natural yeast, baking powder and desserts which
contain no yeast. Place the dish in the oven while it is still
cold. The dish may also be placed in a preheated oven.

THE DIVIDER

Fit the DIVIDER to the DIVIDER shelf "D" using the pin,
with the arrows turned towards the rear part of the oven. A
buzzer will sound to confirm that the DIVIDER has been fitted
correctly; it will then be possible to use the two MAIN and
SMALL Space compartments separately or at the same time.
The selector buttons for the SMALL Space
Space cavities will be enabled. The MAIN cavity is
selected by default.
Small Space
Starting the oven
1. With the DIVIDER inserted, select the SMALL Space
cavity.
2. Follow the above instructions for the EXTRALARGE
cavity when carrying out the various adjustment and setting
procedures.
Cooking modes
GRILL mode
The top heating element and the rotisserie spit (where
present) are activated. The high and direct temperature
of the grill is recommended for food which requires a high
surface temperature. Always cook in this mode with the oven
door closed (see "Practical cooking advice").
FAST COOKING mode
Preheating is not necessary for this cooking mode. This
mode is particularly suitable for cooking pre-packed
food quickly (frozen or pre-cooked). The best results are
achieved using one cooking rack only.
Main Space
Starting the oven
1. With the DIVIDER inserted, select the MAIN Space
cavity.
2. Follow the above instructions for the EXTRALARGE
cavity when carrying out the various adjustment and setting
procedures.
CREATION cooking modes
! All cooking modes have a default cooking temperature
which may be adjusted manually to a value between 30°C
and 250°C as desired (300°C for GRILL mode). CREATION
cooking modes include all manual programmes.
The oven controls all essential aspects of each of these
cooking modes and makes it easier for you to create the
perfect dish, from the simplest recipe to the most sophisticated
culinary delights: the temperature, heat source, humidity and
fan assisted operation are all controlled automatically.
This chapter was written with the help of our very own culinary
expert. We invite you to follow his advice so you can benefit
from his experience and perfect your cooking skills.
The recommended cooking modes, temperatures and oven
shelf heights reflect our expert's own experience in the
kitchen and will help you achieve the very best results.
The table below specifies whether it is best to pre-heat your
oven or not for each CREATION cooking mode. Observing
these suggestions will guarantee perfect results. If you wish to
and MAIN place food in a preheated oven, wait for the preheating stage
to be completed (this will be signalled by a series of beeps).
The temperature is set automatically, according to the cooking
mode selected; however, you may adjust it to suit your recipe.
You can also set a cooking duration with an immediate or
delayed start.
MULTILEVEL mode
All heating elements and the fan are activated. Since the
heat remains constant throughout the oven, the air cooks
and browns food in a uniform manner. A maximum of two
racks may be used at the same time.
