Tip
¡ Reduce the baking
temperature and in-
crease the baking
time.
¡ Add less liquid.
For cakes with a moist
topping:
¡ Pre-bake the base.
¡ Sprinkle the baked
base with almonds or
breadcrumbs.
¡ Place the topping on
the base.
¡ Allow the cake to cool
for 5 - 10 minutes after
baking.
¡ Use a knife to carefully
loosen the edge of the
cake.
¡ Turn the cake tin up-
side down again and
cover it several times
with a cold, wet cloth.

grease the baking tin
and sprinkle it with
breadcrumbs.

Tips for cooking bakes and soufflés
¡ How well cooked a bake is depends on the size of
the cookware and the depth of the bake. Use an
ovenproof dish that is 4 to 5 cm deep for bakes and
gratins. Food takes longer to cook in deep, narrow
cookware and it browns more on top.
¡ Use heat-resistant, microwave-safe cookware.
¡ Use the indicated shelf positions.
¡ Leave bakes and gratins to cook in the oven for a
further 5 minutes after the oven has been switched
off.

¡ Stainless steel and aluminium roasting trays that
have a shiny surface are not suitable for microwave
use.
During conventional cooking, shiny roasting trays re-
flect heat like a mirror, meaning that they are not en-
tirely suitable.
The poultry, meat or fish cooks slower and does not
brown so well.
Use a higher temperature and a longer cooking
time for conventional cooking.
¡ Follow the cookware manufacturer's instructions.
Cookware without a lid
¡ To cook poultry, meat and fish, it is best to use a
deep roasting tin.
¡ Place the tin on the bottom of the cooking compart-
ment.
