Cooking Advice - Smeg SF170 Manual

Turbo
The combination of fan-assisted
cooking and traditional cooking
allows different foods to be cooked
on several levels extremely quickly
and efficiently, without odours and
flavours mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense
cooking.
Defrosting
Rapid defrosting is helped by
switching on the fan provided and
the top heating element that ensure
uniform distribution of low
temperature air inside the oven.
Pizza
The operation of the fan, combined
with the grill and the lower heating
element, ensures uniform cooking
even with complex recipes. Perfect
not just for pizzas, but also for
biscuits and cakes.
Pyrolysis
Setting this function, the oven
reaches temperatures up to 500°C,
destroying all the grease which
forms on the internal walls.
Vapor Clean
This function makes cleaning easier
using the steam produced by a little
quantity of water poured onto the
appropriate drawing placed on the
bottom.

3.5 Cooking advice

General advice
• Use a fan-assisted function to achieve
uniform cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; if not, it
needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan-assisted grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan-assisted grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
• With the Grill function, we recommend
that you turn the temperature knob to the
maximum value near the
optimise cooking.
Advice for cooking desserts and biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: they help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
