Tips for keeping acrylamide levels to a minimum
when cooking
Acrylamide is harmful to your health and is produced
when you cook cereal and potato products at very high
temperatures.
Meal
Tip
General
¡ Keep cooking times as short as pos-
informa-
sible.
tion
¡ Cook food until it is golden brown, but
not too dark.
¡ Use large, thick pieces of food. These
contain less acrylamide.
Baking
¡ Set max. top/bottom heating to
200 °C.
¡ Set the temperature in hot air mode to
max. 180 °C.
Biscuits
¡ Brush baked items and biscuits with
egg or egg yolk. This reduces the pro-
duction of acrylamide.
Oven
¡ Spread the chips out evenly and in a
chips
single layer on the baking tray.
¡ Cook at least 400 g at once on a bak-
ing tray so that the chips do not dry
out.

Tip
¡ Cook the food in a
covered roasting dish
at a higher temperat-
ure.
Or:
¡ Use the grill tray. If re-
quired, the grill tray
can be bought later as
an optional accessory.
¡ When the roast is
ready, switch off the
oven and leave the
meat to rest for
10 minutes in the
cooking compartment
with the door closed.
This helps distribute
the meat juices more
evenly. The resting
time is not included in
the specified cooking
time.
¡ After preparing it, wrap
the food in aluminium
foil.

The temperature and baking time depend on the quant-
ity and consistency of the dough. This is why temperat-
ure ranges are given in the tables. Set a short cooking
time first. If required, set a longer cooking time next
time. A lower temperature results in more even brown-
ing.
Baking tips
We have compiled a few tips to help you achieve a
good baking result.
Topic
You want your cake to
rise evenly.
You do not want small
baked goods to stick to
each other when baking.
Determine whether the
cake is ready.
You want to bake accord-
ing to your own recipe.
Use bakeware made of
silicone, glass, plastic or
ceramic.
Type of
tion
heating
Tip
¡ Only grease the base
of the springform cake
tin.
¡ After baking, use a
knife to carefully
loosen the cake from
the baking tin.
Leave a minimum clear-
ance of 2 cm around
each item that is to be
baked. This allows
enough space for the
baked goods to expand
and brown on all sides.
Push a cocktail stick into
the highest point on the
cake. If the cocktail stick
comes out clean, the
cake is ready.
Use similar items in the
baking tables as a guide.
¡ The baking tin must be
heat-resistant up to
250 °C.
¡ Cakes in these types
of bakeware brown
less.
