Fine-Tuning Your Results; Cooking Parameter - Rational iCombi Pro Original Instructions For Use

Fine-tuning your results

After you have selected an intelligent cooking path, the unit will show you specific cooking parameters and
functions for that path. By default, cooking paths use standard settings tailored to your country; these settings are
designed to give you ideal cooking results. You can adjust these parameters and select additional functions using
simple gestures [} 18] or the central selection knob [} 18]. Changing these settings will change the process used in
the cooking path. You can check on the unit's progress at any time via the Cockpit [} 41].

cooking parameter

Degree of searing
This cooking parameter lets you select whether to sear the food or not. Use the settings to specify more or less
searing, depending on the results you want. Less searing means less cooking shrinkage. Choosing without will
skip the searing step entirely. Choose without if you are using smaller, previously seared pieces of meat and want
to finish cooking them gently.
If you want to brown the food at the end of the cooking path, choose a lower searing level.
Searing is done at a very high temperature, which reliably kills any bacteria on the outside of the product, so you
can use a lower core temperature without worrying about hygiene issues.
browning
Use this cooking parameter to indicate how brown you want the outside of the food. Use the settings to increase
or decrease browning intensity, depending on the results you want. Seasoning or marinating with herbs, spices, or
pastes that brown easily will cause your food to brown more rapidly and more intensely, so we recommend using
a lower browning level in those instances.
food thickness
Use this parameter to specify whether your food is thin (less than 2 cm thick) or thick (more than 2 cm thick).
product size
Use this parameter to specify the size of the individual products you are preparing.
Select small for fillet strips or breast of quail. Select large for roast beef, whole duck, or pork belly.
n
Select small for eggs weighing less than 53 g. Select large for eggs weighing more than 64 g.
