Cooking By Temperature - GE Monogram ZMC1095 Series Owner's Manual

COOKING BY TEMPERATURE
Internal temperature is the best test of doneness
for many foods.
Use Temp Cook!Hold to cook a variety of foods to
the desired finished food temperature. The Micro
Cook setting is recommended for batters, doughs,
frozen foods and foods which are difficult to cook
precisely with the probe.
Temp Cook/Hold takes the guesswork out of cooking
because the oven automatically switches to "Hold"
setting after reaching the preset food temperature
and maintains that temperature until you touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
NOTE: Oven automatically switches to "Hold"
when preset food temperature is reached.
The Temperature Probe
The temperature probe is a food thermometer that
gauges the internal temperature of your food.
Use the probe when you want to Convection Cook
or Combination Cook to a preferred internal
temperature. (Its appearance may vary from picture
shown.) The probe must be used when using Temp
Cook/Hold or Combination Roast. To use the probe
properly, follow directions in the Combination
Roasting section.

Cooking Tips
• Use a lower power level; foods will heat more
evenly though requiring more time.
• Be sure frozen food has been completely defrosted
before inserting probe. Probe may break off if used
in frozen foods.
• Cover foods loosely for moisture control and quick,
even heating.
• Insert the probe horizontally into the center meaty
area not touching bone or fat. Make sure the handle
does not touch the food or top or sides of the oven.
Questions and Answers

Q. Can 1 leave my probe in the oven if it's not
inserted in food?
