Low Temperature Cooking - Miele H 7164 BP Operating And Installation Instructions

Low temperature cooking

Low temperature cooking is ideal for
cooking delicate cuts of beef, pork, veal
or lamb when a tender result is desired.
First briefly sear the meat all over at a
high temperature on the cooktop in
order to seal it.
Then place the meat in the pre-heated
oven where the low temperature and
long cooking duration will cook it to
perfection and ensure it is very tender.
The meat will relax. The juices inside
will start to circulate evenly throughout
the meat to reach the outer layers.
This gives very tender and succulent
results.
 Use lean meat which has been
correctly hung and trimmed. Bones
should be removed before cooking.
 For searing, use a suitable cooking oil
or fat that can withstand high
temperatures (e.g. clarified butter,
vegetable oil).
 Do not cover meat during the cooking
process.
The cooking duration takes approx.
2–4 hours depending on the weight
and size of the meat and how well you
want it cooked.
 As soon as the cooking programme
has finished, you can carve the meat
straight from the oven. It does not
need to rest.
 The meat can be left in the oven
compartment to keep warm until you
serve it. This will not affect results in
any way.
Other applications
 Serve on pre-heated plates with very
hot sauce or gravy to prevent it
cooling down too quickly. The meat is
at the ideal temperature for eating
straight away.
Using Conventional Heat 
Refer to the information in the cooking
charts at the end of this booklet.
Use the universal tray with the rack
placed on top of it.
 Place the rack together with the
universal tray on shelf level 2.
 Pre-heat the oven together with the
universal tray and rack for approx.
15 minutes.
 While the oven is pre-heating, sear
the meat on all sides on the cooktop.

Risk of burning due to hot
surfaces.
The oven gets hot during operation.
You could burn yourself on the
heating elements, the oven
compartment, or accessories.
Wear oven gloves when placing food
in the oven or removing it, and when
adjusting oven shelves etc. in a hot
oven.
 Place the seared meat on the oven
rack.
 Reduce the temperature to 100 °C
(see "Cooking charts").
 Continue cooking until the end of the
programme.
