most of each cooking method�
Sear (220–230° C)

stews, soups, and other dishes� It uses high
temperatures to cook the outside surfaces
quickly, trapping flavour and juices inside�

Sautéing is ideal for giving meats and
vegetables a fresh, crisp flavour and texture�
Use sauté for creating oriental dishes, stir-
fries, and breakfast foods such as sausage
and scrambled eggs�
Bake (165–190° C)
Select bake to make cakes, casseroles,
and other dishes�

indirect heat�

a gentle cooking helps yield rich, hearty
