Meat, Poultry, Fish - Bosch Fornuis HGV725120N Instruction Manual

The bread or cake (e.g. cheesecake)
looks good, but is soggy on the inside
(sticky, streaked with water).
The cake is unevenly browned.
The bottom of a fruit cake is too light.
The fruit juice overflows.
Small baked items made out of yeast
dough stick to one another when bak-
ing.
You were baking on several levels. The
items on the top baking tray are darker
than that on the bottom baking tray.
Condensation forms when you bake
moist cakes.

Ovenware
You may use any heat­resistant ovenware. The universal pan is
suitable for large roasts.
Glass ovenware is the most suitable. Ensure that the lid of the
roasting dish fits well and closes properly.
Add a little more liquid when using enamelled roasting dishes.
With roasting dishes made of stainless steel, browning is not so
intense and the meat may be somewhat less well cooked.
Increase the cooking times.
Information in the tables:
Ovenware without a lid = open
Ovenware with a lid = closed
Always place the ovenware in the centre of the wire rack.
Place hot glass ovenware on a dry mat after cooking. The glass
could crack if placed on a cold or wet surface.
Roasting
Add in a little liquid if the meat is lean. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. ½ cm of liquid.
Add liquid generously for pot roasts. Cover the base of the
ovenware with approx. 1 - 2 cm of liquid.
The amount of liquid depends on the type of meat and the
material the ovenware is made of. If preparing meat in an
enamelled roasting dish, it will need a little more liquid than if
cooked in glass ovenware.
Roasting dishes made from stainless steel are not ideal. The
meat cooks more slowly and browns less fully. Use a higher
temperature and/or a longer cooking time.

Use slightly less fluid next time and bake for slightly longer at a lower temperature. For
cakes with a moist topping, bake the base first. Sprinkle it with almonds or bread crumbs
and then place the topping on top. Please follow the recipe and baking times.
Select a slightly lower temperature to ensure that the cake is baked more evenly. Bake
delicate pastries on one level using
paper can affect the air circulation. For this reason, always cut greaseproof paper to fit
the baking tray.
Place the cake one level lower the next time.
Next time, use the deeper universal pan, if you have one.
There should be a gap of approx. 2 cm around each item. This gives enough space for
the baked items to expand well and turn brown on all sides.
:
Always use 3D hot air to bake on more than one level. Baking trays that are placed in
the oven at the same time will not necessarily be ready at the same time.
Baking may result in the formation of water vapour, which escapes above the door. The
steam may settle and form water droplets on the control panel or on the fronts of adja-
cent units. This is a natural process.

Grilling
When grilling, preheat the oven for approx. 3 minutes, before
placing the food into the cooking compartment.
Always grill with the oven door closed.
As far as possible, the pieces of food you are grilling should be
of equal thickness. This will allow them to brown evenly and
remain succulent and juicy.
Turn the food you are grilling after
Do not add salt to steaks until they have been grilled.
Place the food to be grilled directly on the wire rack. If you are
grilling a single piece, the best results are achieved by placing
it in the centre of the wire rack.
The universal pan should also be inserted at level 1. The meat
juices are collected in the pan and the oven is kept cleaner.
When grilling, do not insert the baking tray or universal pan at
level 4 or 5. The high heat distorts it and the cooking
compartment can be damaged when removing it.
The grill element switches on and off continually. This is normal.
The grill setting determines how frequently this will happen.
Meat
Turn pieces of meat halfway through the cooking time.
When the roast is ready, turn off the oven and allow it to rest for
an additional 10 minutes. This allows better distribution of the
meat juices.
After cooking, wrap sirloin in aluminium foil and leave it to rest
for 10 minutes in the oven.
For roast pork with a rind, score the rind in a crossways pattern,
then lay the roast in the dish with the rind at the bottom.
