Intensity
The intensity determines how quickly
and evenly the food should absorb the
energy in the form of Gourmet units.
–
Strong
For most food, e.g. bread, flaky
pastry, casseroles, terrines, roast
meat and fish. Depending on the
food an average of 11 Gourmet units
are used per minute, with a maximum
of 13 Gourmet units per minute.
–
Medium
For heavy cake mixes (e.g. chocolate
cake and almond cake), tray bakes,
rolls, pizza and meat. Depending on
the food an average of 9 Gourmet
units are used per minute.
–
Gentle
For delicate food, e.g. cheese cake,
crème caramel and soufflés.
Depending on the food an average of
3 Gourmet units are used per minute.
These settings will vary depending on
the food and should only be taken as
a guide.
