Mixed Steam-Convection Cooking
• Temperature: from 70°C to 260°C
• Steam: from 10% to 60%
The cooking is made by the combination of hot dry air and steam, evenly distributed inside the cavity. It is
surely the most profitable and efficient working system among the cooking methods used today.
Cooking times are considerably reduced. At the same time, the food remains more tender and nearly
unaltered in weight.
Suitable for: Roasts cooking, Roast beef, Braised Meat, Stews
Fish Cooking
Chef’s suggestions:
For roast cooking it is better to use a perforated pan or a grid, because in this way it will not be
necessary to turn the food continually.
In any case, you will be able to collect the meat juices by adding on the bottom of the cavity a
not-perforated pan, with the desired spices and a vegetables mirepoix (celery, carrots, onions)
which allow you to make a sauce.
Steaming
• Low temperature steaming: temperature from 70°C to 99°C
• Steaming: temperature from 99°C to 105°C
• Intensive steaming: temperature from 105°C to 130°C
• Steam: 100%
The use of ventilated steam is one of the most delicate ways of cooking food. With this kind of cooking the food
does not lose any liquid; therefore the nutritional contents, the appearance and the weight of the food remain
unaltered.
Suitable for : Low temperature steaming ► Vegetables, Fruit, Terrines, Soufflés, Pâtés, Vacuum-Cooking
Steaming ► Vegetables, Fruit, Eggs, Meat, Fish
Intensive steaming ► Potatoes
Chef’s suggestions:
To cook leaf vegetables with steam, it is suggested to initially slightly moisten the food, in order to
avoid the drying out of the leaves. In addittion, to avoid the dispersion of the food due to air flow
inside the cavity, you can use two baskets (No Fry, one as a base and another, turned upside down,
as a cover).
