Cooking By Temperature - Zanussi MWi 771 Instructions Manual

Cooking by Temperature (Fig 9)
The temperature probe helps to eliminate
much of the guesswork when cooking dense
foods in the microwave. The probe is
inserted into the centre of the food, and
plugged in at the probe plug socket. The
oven then has the facility to cook by judging
the internal temperature of the food. Once
the programmed temperature is reached
the oven will automatically switch into
Hold-Warm setting which will maintain the
temperature for 60 minutes. It is not
recommended to use the probe on thin food
items such as chops, steaks and foods that
require tenderising by simmering. If the
microwave stops during the cooking
programme this indicates either that the
probe has been inserted incorrectly or that
the food is unsuitable for this method of
cooking.
Automatic Hold-Warm
The Hold-Warm feature enables you to
keep food warm and is used in conjunction
with the probe. Once the food has reached
the programmed temperature the
microwave automatically changes to a
Hold-Warm programme, and maintains the
food at the programmed temperature for
up to 60 minutes. It is very useful for
keeping food hot but don't forget one of the
many advantages of a microwave oven is
that it reheats food very quickly and easily
especially if the quantities are small.
