Handling food carefully will help pro-
tect your health.
Cakes, pizzas and french fries should
be cooked until golden, not dark
brown.
Baking tips
- Set a cooking duration. When baking,
the oven should not be set to start a
long time off. Otherwise the cake mix-
ture or dough will dry out, and the
raising agents will lose their effective-
ness.
- Generally speaking, you can use racks,
universal trays and any type of baking
tray made of heat-resistant material.
- Always place baking tins on the rack.
- Always cook frozen goods such as
cakes, pizza or baguettes on the rack.
Very high temperatures can cause
the universal tray to distort to such
an extent that the tray cannot be
taken out of the oven compartment.
- Small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes can
be cooked on the universal tray. Turn
these frozen food items several times
during cooking.
- Bake on a maximum of 2 levels at the
same time.
Using baking parchment
Miele accessories, e.g. the universal
tray, are treated with PerfectClean
(see "Cleaning and care"). Surfaces
treated with PerfectClean generally do
not need to be greased or covered
with baking parchment.
Use baking parchment when cooking:
- lye mixtures because anything pre-
pared using a lye containing sodium
hydroxide can damage the
PerfectClean surface
- mixtures with a high egg white con-
tent, such as sponge, meringue and
macaroons, as these can easily stick
- puff pastry or strudel dough
- frozen food on the rack
- small items of frozen food such as
oven chips or potato croquettes on
the universal tray
