7. COOKING WITH THE OVEN

ECO:
Using the grill and the bottom heating element plus the fan is
particularly suitable for cooking small quantities of food, as it
provides low energy consumption.
STATIC:
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 or thermal radiation
cooking, is suitable for cooking just one dish at a time. Perfect
for all types of roasts, bread and cakes and in any case
particularly suitable for fatty meats such as goose and duck.
GRILL:
The heat coming from the grill element gives perfect grilling
results, especially for thin and medium thickness meat and, in
combination with the rotisserie (when present), it allows the food
to be browned evenly at the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, ribs and bacon. This function enables large quantities
rd th
of food, particularly meat, to be grilled evenly. (3 or 4 shelf).
CIRCULAR:
The combination of the fan and the circular element
(incorporated in the rear of the oven) allows 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 biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels) without mixing odours and
flavours.
st
(For multiple-level cooking, you are advised to use the 1 and
rd
3 shelves.)
FAN-ASSISTED GRILL:
The air produced by the fan softens the strong heatwave
generated by the grill, giving perfect grilling results even with
very thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of meat (e.g. shin of pork).
rd
We recommend using the 3 shelf.
