Functions list
As the heat comes from above and below
at the same time, this system is particularly
suitable for certain types of food. Traditional
cooking, also known as static cooking, is
suitable for cooking just one dish at a time.
Perfect for all types of roasts, bread and
cakes and particularly suitable for fatty
meats such as goose and duck.
The operation of the fan, combined with
traditional cooking, ensures uniform
cooking even with complex recipes. Perfect
for cookies and cakes, even when
simultaneously cooked on several levels.
The combination of the fan and the
convection heating element (incorporated
in the rear of the oven) allows you to cook
different foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures and same
type of cooking. Hot air circulation ensures
instant and uniform distribution of heat. It will
be possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and cookies simultaneously (on
different levels) without mixing odors and
flavors.
The combination of convection cooking
and traditional cooking allows different
foods to be cooked on several levels
extremely quickly and efficiently, without
odors and flavors mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense cooking.
Use
The heat coming from the broiler element
gives perfect broiling results above all for
thin and medium thickness meat and, in
combination with the rotisserie (where
fitted), gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for sausages,
ribs and bacon. This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat, to be
grilled evenly.
The air produced by the fan softens the
strong heatwave generated by the broiler,
roasting even very thick foods perfectly.
Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g. pork
shank).
The heat coming just from the bottom allows
you to complete the cooking of foods that
require a higher bottom temperature,
without affecting their browning. Perfect for
cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.
Allows you to quickly finish cooking food
that is already cooked on the surface but
not internally. Ideal for quiches, suitable for
all kinds of dishes.
Function designed for cooking pizza.
Perfect not just for pizzas, but also for
biscuits and cakes.
