COOKING MISTAKES AND WAYS TO FIX THEM
- The table contains typical mistakes made when cooking food in multicookers, the possible causes and ways to eliminate the mistakes.
THE DISH IS UNDERCOOKED
Possible causes and troubles | Ways to eliminate the mistakes |
---|
The lid of the multicooker was not closed or was not closed tightly, so the cooking temperature of the food was lower than the set temperature.| Do not open the multicooker lid during cooking, if it is not necessary.
Close the lid until the lock clicks. Make sure that there are no foreign objects or food residues between the lid and the multicooker body. Keep the gasket on the inner lid clean and in good condition.
Poor contact between the bowl and the heating element, so the cooking
temperature was lower than the set temperature.| The bowl must be installed in
the multicooker evenly and is in full contact with the heating element. Make
sure that there are no foreign objects in the process chamber of the
multicooker. Keep the heating element clean. Check the mobility of the
temperature sensor which is located in the center of the heating element.
Poor choice of the ingredients of the dish. These ingredients are not suitable
for the cooking method you have chosen, or the wrong cooking program has been
selected.
The ingredients are cut too large, the general proportions of the product loading are violated.
The food cooking time was insufficient.
| Use proven (adapted for this multicooker model) recipes. Use trustworthy recipes.
The choice of ingredients, the method of cutting, the loading proportions, the choice of program and cooking time must correspond to the selected recipe.
For steam cooking: there is not enough water in the bowl to ensure normal
steam formation.| Pour water into the bowl in the amount recommended by the
recipe. If in doubt, check the water level during cooking.
During frying| Too much vegetable oil in the bowl.| For normal frying, a thin
layer of oil covering the bottom of the bowl is enough.
For deep frying, follow the corresponding recipe.
Too much moisture in the bowl.| Do not close the lid of the multicooker when
frying, unless it is prescribed in the recipe. Defrost freshly frozen food and
dry with a paper towel before frying.
During boiling: broth boils over when cooking foods with high acidity.| Some
foods require special treatment before they can be cooked: rinsing, sautéing
etc. Follow the recommendations of the recipe of your choice.
During baking (the dough is not fully baked).| During the proofing process,
the dough stuck to the inner lid and blocked the steam valve.| Put a smaller
amount of dough into the bowl.
Too much dough in the bowl.| Remove the baked goods from the bowl, turn them
over and place them back in the bowl, then continue cooking. Further, when
baking, put a smaller amount of dough into the bowl.
THE DISH IS OVERCOOKED
The ingredients are too small or the cooking time is too long.| Refer to the
proven (adapted for this model of multicooker) recipe. The choice of
ingredients, the method of cutting, the loading proportions, the choice of
program and cooking time must correspond to the recipe recommendations.
---|---
After cooking, the cooked dish stayed too long inside the multicooker with the
auto-heating function on.| Prolonged use of the auto-heating function is not
recommended. Use the auto-heating deactivation function.
THE PRODUCT BOILS OVER DURING BOILING
Milk boils over during cooking of milk porridge.| Quality of milk depends on
the place and conditions of production. It is recommended to use only ultra
pasteurized milk up to 2.5% fat. If necessary, you can dilute milk with
drinking water.
---|---
Ingredients have not been processed before cooking, or have not been processed
correctly (poorly washed, etc.).
The proportions of ingredients are not correct or the product type is wrong.
| Refer to the proven (adapted for this model of multicooker) recipe. The choice of ingredients, the way of preprocessing, the loading proportions must correspond to the recipe recommendations.
Always rinse whole grains, meat, fish and seafood thoroughly.
The product forms a foam.| It is recommended to rinse the product thoroughly, remove the steam valve or cook with the lid open.
THE DISH BURNS
The bowl was poorly cleaned after previous cooking.
Non-stick bowl coating is damaged.
| Before you start cooking, make sure the bowl is well washed and the non-
stick coating is not damaged.
