Panacrunch Pan

THE 'CONCEPT'
Some foods cooked by microwave can become soft and
soggy. Your Panacrunch Pan accessory will brown and crisp
pizzas, quiches, pies, and breaded products just as a
conventional oven. Your Panasonic Panacrunch Pan
works by absorbing microwave energy and transferring
this as heat to crisp the base of the food. The
microwave oven then heats up the food directly
and browns the top of the food by the grill. The
heating effect of the Panacrunch Pan is
maximised by the non-stick surface.
USING THE PANACRUNCH PAN (Manual operation)
●
For best results, pre-heat the pan before using. Place directly
on the Glass Turntable and pre-heat on Combination Grill 1 +
MEDIUM power for 4 minutes. To assist browning, brush the
food with oil for items such as meat chops and chicken pieces.
●
Remove the pan from the oven and place the food in the pan.
Use the Panacrunch Pan handle or oven gloves as the pan will
be very hot. For best results, it is important that the food is
placed on the pan immediately after pre-heating. Performance
cannot be guaranteed with a time delay.
●
Place the pan on the Glass Turntable and cook according to
the guidelines shown in the re-heating and cooking charts
(pages 31-39).
