The 'Slow' Setting

Some advantages
of slow cooking
are:
Operating
Procedure
Your fan oven has a 'slow cooking' facility.
This is used for slow cooking, keeping food warm and warming
plates for short periods.
The oven stays cleaner because there is less splashing.
Timing of food is not as critical, so there is less fear of overcooking.
Fully loading the oven can be very economical.
Cooking times can be extended in some cases by up to 2 hours for
latecomers.
The kitchen stays cooler.
Bearing in mind these advantages, it makes sense to cook larger
quantities of food than required and store them in a freezer to be
used cold or for re-heating.
It is important to follow the guidelines given for preparing food
using the 'Slow' setting.
Slow cooking can only be used with the fan oven operating at
the 'E' setting.
1. Ensure Oven Timer is set correctly, for auto/manual operation.
2. Turn the oven thermostat control to a temperature at the 'E'
setting (90 o C). The oven indicator light will remain on until the
oven reaches the set temperature. The light will then auto-
matically cycle off and on during cooking as the oven
temperature is controlled.
3. After use always return both controls to the off position and
close the oven door.
Menus in this book are for slow cooking only.
