Baking; Baking Guidelines - Miele DGC7440W Operating And Installation Instructions

Handling food carefully will help
protect your health.
Cakes, pizzas and chips should be
cooked until golden, not dark brown.

Baking guidelines

– Set a cooking duration. When baking,
the oven should not be set to start a
long time off. Otherwise the cake
mixture or dough will dry out, and the
raising agents will lose their
effectiveness.
– Generally, you can use the rack,
universal tray and any type of baking
tray made of heat-resistant material.
– Always place bakeware on the rack.
– Always cook frozen goods such as
cakes, pizza or baguettes on the
rack.
Very high temperatures can cause
the universal tray to distort to such
an extent that the tray cannot be
taken out of the oven compartment.
– Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes can
be cooked on the universal tray. Turn
these frozen food items several times
during cooking.
– Bake on a maximum of 2 levels at
once. When baking cakes with a
moist topping, only bake on one
level.
Using baking paper
Miele accessories, e.g. the universal
tray, are treated with PerfectClean
enamel (see "Cleaning and care").
Surfaces treated with PerfectClean
enamel generally do not need to be
greased or covered with baking paper.
 Use baking paper when cooking:
– lye mixtures because anything
prepared using a lye containing
sodium hydroxide can damage the
PerfectClean surface
– mixtures with a high egg white
content, such as sponge, meringue
and macaroons, as these can easily
stick
– puff pastry or strudel dough
– frozen food on the rack
– small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes on
the universal tray
