5.  HINTS AND TIPSWARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.5.1  CookwareUse the hob only with
original wok with round
bottom.WARNING!
Do not use cookware with
flat bottom. Safe operation
in accordance with EN60335
can only be guaranteed with
the wok pan supplied with
the hob.For induction cooking zones
a strong electro-magnetic
field creates the heat in the
cookware very quickly.
Cookware material
• correct:  cast iron, steel, enamelled
steel, stainless steel, the bottom
made of multi-layer (with correct mark
from a manufacturer).
• not correct:  aluminium, copper,
brass, glass, ceramic, porcelain.
Cookware is correct for an induction
hob if:
• some water boils very quickly on a zone set to the highest heat setting.
• a magnet pulls on to the bottom of the cookware.5.2  The noises during
operation
If you can hear:
• crack noise: cookware is made of different materials (sandwich
construction).
• whistle sound: you use the cooking zone with high power level and the
cookware is made of different
materials (sandwich construction).
• humming: you use high power level. • clicking: electric switching occurs.
• hissing, buzzing: the fan operates.
The noises are normal and do not refer
to hob malfunction.
ENGLISH11                          
						

							5.3 Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on the cookware.
• Put cookware on a cooking zone before you start it.
• Use the residual heat to keep the food warm or to melt it.5.4  Öko Timer (Eco Timer)
To save energy, the heater of the
cooking zone deactivates before the count down timer sounds. The differencein the operation time depends on the
heat setting level and the length of thecooking operation.
5.5  Cooking with the wok
The induction wok is best for preparing
"a la minute" dishes, in particular
Chinese specialities. The food is
continuously turned during the short
frying time. Induction heating system
allows you to cook very quickly and at high heat level. As a result meat and fish
stay succulent and vegetables keep their
colour, taste and vitamins.
At the heat setting 9 and above the induction wok has a high power with very
fast reaction time. Fat and oil become
too hot very quickly. When it starts to
smoke, it is too hot. Power function must
be used only for a short time if you cook
with small quantity of food or oil. There is
the risk of damage to the wok pan.
The frying temperature can be estimated by testing with a wooden spoon. Hold
the handle of a wooden spoon in the hot
fat. If small bubbles rise to the surface,
the frying temperature has been
reached. If there are no bubbles, the
frying temperature has not yet been
reached.
Cooking methods
Stir-frying
• Swirl the wok with oil.
• Cut the ingredients into small pieces. Add sauces and seasonings and
quickly fry over a high heat while stirring continuously.
• The cooking time is very short. Make
sure that the ingredients are prepared
before you start cooking.
• Start with the ingredients with the longest cooking time.
• Stir-frying is a very healthy cooking method.
• Vegetables keep their taste and colour, and stay nice and crunchy.
• Small pieces of meat stay tender.
Deep-frying
• The wok provides a very small drop in temperature and low oil consumption.
• Because of the constant temperature the fried food does not absorb much
fat.
• Meat, fish, potatoes, vegetables, etc.
keep an even colour and crust, andthus also the usual taste.
• Only use fats that are specially intended for deep-frying.
Poaching / Whipping
• The curved shape of the wok is suitable for whipping up custards,
sabayons, butter sauces, fatless
sponge or parfait mixtures without a
bain marie at 65° C to 80° C.
Simmering
• Boiling: to cook food (for example spaghetti) at the boiling point.
• Simmering: to cook food (for example dumplings) just under the boiling
point.
Stewing
• Cook the food in its own juice, or add of a little fat and other liquid.
• Use this method to cook food with a high water content (such as
vegetables, fish and fruit) with a lid on over moderate heat, to keep the
flavour.
Steaming
• This is a gentle cooking method, which keeps a high level of the food’s
nutrient content and colour.Use of the fats and oils
When the temperature is too high, the
fat begins to produce smoke. This temperature is called the smoke point.
