Indesit K 6C7 M.C_R [8/40] Practical cooking advice

The oven offers a wide range of alternatives which allow

you to cook any type of food in the best possible way. The

various features make it possible to select the level of heat

and to direct it as you like: from the bottom, from above or

uniformly. With time you will learn to make the best use of

this versatile cooking appliance and the following direc-

tions are only a guideline which may be varied according

to your own personal experience.

Baking Pastries

When baking pastries, always place them in the oven after

it has been preheated (about 15 minutes). The tempera-

ture is normally around 160°C. Do not open the door while

the pastry is cooking in order to prevent it from dropping.

Batters must not be too runny, as this will result in pro-

longed cooking times. In general:

Pastry is too dry

Increase the temperature by 10°C and reduce the

cooking time.

Pastry dropped

Use less liquid or lower the the temperature by 10°C.

Pastry is too dark on top

Place it on a lower rack, lower the temperature, and

increase the cooking time.

Cooked well on the inside but sticky on the outside

Use less liquid, lower the temperature, and increase the

cooking time.

The pastry sticks to the pan

Grease the pan well and sprinkle it with a dusting of

flour.

I used more than one level and they are not all at

the same cooking point

Use a lower temperature setting. It is not necessary to

remove the food from all the racks at the same time.

Cooking Fish and Meat

Meat must weigh at least 1 Kg in order to prevent it from

drying out. When cooking white meat, fowl and fish, use

low temperature settings (150°C-175°C). For red meat that

should be well done on the outside while tender and juicy

in the inside, it is a good idea to start with a high tempera-

ture setting (200°C-220°C) for a short time, then turn the

oven down afterwards. In general, the larger the roast, the

lower the temperature setting. Place the meat on the cen-

tre of the rack and place the dripping pan beneath it to

catch the fat. Make sure that the rack is inserted so that it

is in the centre of the oven. If you would like to increase

the amount of heat from below, use the low rack heights.

For savoury roasts (especially duck and wild game), dress

the meat with lard or bacon on the top.

Cooking on More Than One Rack

If you have to cook on more than one rack, use only feature

no. 2

“Position of the “G” knob "Ventilated Mode,” as

it is the only one designed for this type of operation.

· The oven has 5 different rack heights. When cooking with

the ventilated mode, use only the two centre rack heights:

the bottom and topmost rack heights directly receive hot

air and this could result in more delicate dishes being

burned.

· In general, use levels 2 and 4 from the bottom, placing

the food requiring more heat at level no. 2. For example,

when cooking a roast together with other food, place the

roast at level 2 and the more delicate dishes at level 4.

· When cooking foods requiring different cooking times and

temperatures, make sure that the temperature is set be-

tween the two recommended temperatures and put the

more delicate dishes at level no. 4. Finally, remove the

dish with the shorter cooking time first.

· Use the dripping pan at the bottommost rack height and

the grill at the top.

· When cooking pizza on more than one rack, position the

racks at heights 2 and 4, with the temperature set at 220°C.

Remember to preheat the oven for at least 15 minutes. In

general the 4th rack height cooks a little slower, so re-

move the pizza on the second rack height first and leave

the other one in the oven for a few minutes.

· When cooking pastries on two racks, use rack heights 3

and 4. Do not use no. 2 because it receives too much

heat.

Using the Grill

The oven allows you to use two different grilling methods.

Use the no. 3 setting

“Grill” for small portions. Energy

consumption for this feature is only 1200 W; however, it is

ideal for grilling small dishes or portions, e.g. toast, frankfurt-

ers, etc.

Place the food in the centre of the grill, as only the centre of

the heating element is turned on. Food in the corners of the

oven will not be cooked.

The no. 4 setting “Double Grill” allows you to grill along

the entire surface area of the grill itself. Use this feature when

you have food distributed uniformly beneath the grill and you

want it to be browned evenly.

Important: Always leave the oven door closed when us-

ing the grill setting n order to achieve the best results and

save on energy (about 10%).

When using the grill settings, it is recommended that the

thermostat be set to maximum, as this is the optimal setting

for the grill, which utilizes radiation produced by infrared rays.

However, this does not mean that lower temperature set-

tings cannot be used when necessary by simply turning the

control knob.

When using the grill, place the rack at the top rack heights

(see cooking table) and place the dripping-pan beneath the

oven rack to prevent grease from falling onto the bottom of

the oven.
