Tips for cooking and roasting
The values given in the settings table must be looked
upon as recommended values. The heat required
depends not only on the type and condition of the food,
but also the size and contents of the pot.
Due to the high performance of the cooktop, fat and oil
will heat up quickly. Never leave the cooktop
unattended, fat can ignite, food can burn.
Tips for using a wok
Note: When you cook using a wok, place the wok ring
onto the pan support over the wok burner. Make sure
that the wok is stable on the wok ring when you are
cooking.
We recommend using woks with a domed base.
You can order a high-quality wok as an optional
accessory (WP 400 001).
When cooking with the wok, use only cooking oil that is
suitable for heating to high temperatures, such as
groundnut oil.
Cook the ingredients at a high heat, while stirring
constantly. Do not cook them for too long. The
vegetables should be al dente.
For stirring the food and for taking it out of the pan, it is
best to use a shallow ladle with a long handle made
from a heat-resistant material.
mWarning – Risk of injury!
The standard-output burner and high-output burner are
not suitable for use with the wok ring and a wok. The
wok pan is not stable and may overturn. Never place the
wok ring on the standard-output burner or high-output
burner.
