Cooking By Temperature - GE Monogram ZMW2000 Series Use And Care Manual

COOKING BY TEMPERATURE
Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for
many tbods.
Use Temp Cook/Hold to cook a variety of foods to
the desired finished food temperature. The Time
Cook setting is recommended for batters, doughs,
frozen foods and foods which are difficult to cook
precisely with the probe.
Temp Cook/Hold takes the guesswork out of cooking,
because the oven automatically switches to "Hold"
setting after reaching the preset food temperature from
90°E to 199°E and maintains that temperature for up
to one hour or until you touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.
NOTE: Oven automatically switches to "Hold" when
preset food temperature is reached.
The Temperature Probe
The temperature probe is a food thermometer that
gauges the internal temperature of your food. (Its
appearance may vary from picture shown.) The
probe must be used when using Temp Cook/Hold
or Auto Roast. See How to Use the Temperature
Probe section for proper use of your probe.

How to Use the Temperature Probe
Place the probe so that the point
rests in the center of the thickest
meaty part of the roast, or into
the cut end or meatiest part
of boneless ham or lamb. The
point should not touch bone, fat
or gristle. For bone-in ham or
lamb, insert the probe into the
center of the lowest large muscle
or joint.
Insert the probe into the meatiest
part of the inner thigh, below
and parallel to the leg of a
whole turkey.
For dishes such as meatloaf or
casserole, insert the probe into
the center.
