Recommendations ▯ When heating up puree, cream soups and thick sauces, stir occasionally. ▯ Set heat setting 8 to 9 for preheating. ▯ When cooking with the lid on, turn the heat setting down as soon as steam escapes between the lid and the cookware. ▯ After cooking, keep the lid on the cookware until you serve the food. ▯ To cook with the pressure cooker, observe the manufacturer's instructions. Settings table The following table provides some examples. Cooking times may vary depending on the type of food, its weight and quality. Deviations are therefore possible. ▯ Do not cook food for too long, otherwise the nutrients will be lost. The kitchen timer can be used to set the optimum cooking time. ▯ For healthier cooking results, oil or grease should not be heated until it smokes. ▯ To brown food, fry small portions in succession. ▯ Cookware may reach high temperatures while the food is cooking. We recommend that you use pot holders. ▯ You can find recommendations for energy-efficient cooking in section ~ "Protecting the Environment" 9 CAUTION During cooking, stews or liquids, such as soups, sauces or drinks can heat up very quickly and overflow or spatter. For this reason, we recommend that you stir continuously, gradually heating the food at a suitable power level.
