SOUS VIDE

In traditional cooking methods, the heat is transferred from the hot burner or oven to the pan and then to the food, which is heated from the outside to the centre. With guesswork and a little luck, you can sometimes get good results, but the food is often overcooked on the surface and sometimes undercooked towards the middle. The heat generated by the pan or air inside the oven is usually much hotter than it needs to be. If you don’t remove the food at exactly the right time, the results will be inconsistent.
Sous vide cooking uses precise temperature control to achieve results that cannot be achieved with any other cooking technique.

SOUS VIDE COOKING PROCEDURE

1. Place the flavoured food in a resealable bag.
2. Remove the air from the bag before closing it. For better results you can use a vacuum packer.
3. Pour water into the inner pot so that the MAX limit of the inner pot is not exceeded.
4. Press the Sous Vide button and use the rotary knob to select the desired preset cooking programme and confirm the programme by pressing the rotary knob. To change the cooking temperature or time, press before confirming the program Press the Temp or Time button and then confirm the selection by pressing the rotary knob.
5. Press the rotary knob to start the cooking programme. The LCD display will turn orange. Once the desired temperature is reached, the appliance will beep and the timer will start counting down.
6. Carefully place the food bag in the water. Be careful not to drop the bag into the water.
7. When the timer expires, remove the sealed food bag with tongs. Do not use your hands as the water will be hot. Do not press the Keep Warm button.

The preset programmes and temperatures are listed in the table.

SOUS VIDE TIPS
COMMENT: Do not put food in water without putting it in a resealable bag.

• You can add spices to the food and coat it before bagging it.
• When cooking, always use vacuum-sealable, BPA-free or quick-closure bags.
• The thickness of the meat, poultry or fish determines the cooking time. After removing the food from the bag, use a food thermometer to ensure that a safe temperature has been reached.
• If you are unsure of the doneness, add 30 minutes to the cooking time for safety and hygiene reasons (for example, to pasteurise eggs or poultry).
• Make sure that the sealed food bag is submerged at all times to fully cook the food. Attach a weight suitable for food preparation or sous vide (not included) to the food bag.
• Frying after cooking gives the food a finished look and texture. To do this, throw butter into a hot pan and quickly sear the cooked meat for 30 seconds on each side.

CANNING

Cooking allows you to prepare and preserve your favourite foods, including fruits, jams, jellies, vegetables and even meat. Canning is a great way to get out-of-season food on the table in an economical way. Canning allows you to eat healthy, continue a family recipe or simply save money.

WHY PRESSURE CANNING

WHY COOK UNDER PRESSURE?
Pressure canning can be used for all foods, especially those that are low in acid, such as vegetables, meat and seafood. We recommend choosing the exact time, temperature and method specified in the manual to protect the food from harmful bacteria, moulds and/or enzymes. Food enzymes can promote the growth of moulds and yeasts, which then cause spoilage of food. These substances can be destroyed by reaching a temperature of 212 °C during steam preservation.
However, other contaminants such as salmonella, golden staphylococcus and clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism, can occur. A temperature of 240 °C is required to kill these harmful bacteria, which is only ensured during the pressure canning process.
For cooking mode Pressure a Canning three pressure levels can be selected using the rotary knob. Low, medium and high pressure, these are then displayed on the LCD by the indicators LOW, MED and HIGH

COOKING TIME
The table below shows the recommended times for pressure canning.

CANNING PROCEDURE

1. Insert the inner container into the main part of the appliance. Place a wire rack (can be sold separately) on the bottom of the inner pot. Insert filled and sealed jars.
2. Pour hot water into the inner container with the jars until the water level reaches a quarter of the height of the walls of the jars. However, the water may be filled up to the maximum level marked on the inner container.
3. Follow the relevant instructions in this manual to fit the pressure cap to the main part of the appliance. Plug the appliance into a socket.
4. Press the Canning button. The pressure is automatically set to 80 kPa. Select the cooking time listed in the table above.
5. When you have finished canning, press the steam release switch to release the pressure.

JOGURT

1. Insert the inner container into the base.

2. Pour 2 litres of whole or 2% milk into the inner pot.

3. Press the Yogurt button. The LCD display will show “7:00”. Press the rotary button. To change the time, press the Time button and use the rotary pushbutton to select the desired time and press the rotary pushbutton again. “HEAt” will appear on the  display, indicating that the milk is heating up.

4. Once the appliance reaches 82 °C, it stops heating and “Cool” is displayed on the LCD.

5. When the milk temperature reaches 43° C, the appliance beeps and the LCD display shows “Add”. This sign calls for the addition of a yoghurt starter. Using a ladle or measuring cup, remove 1 cup of milk from the inner pot. Mix 1 cup of milk with 2 tablespoons of yogurt or yogurt starter. Then return the milk mixture to the inner pot with the remaining warmed milk and stir gently.

6. Press the Yogurt button again. Use the rotary knob to select between the default preset times. Press the dial to confirm the time.
   COMMENT: If you do not press the Yogurt button, the appliance will beep continuously and after a while switch to standby mode.

7. Put the glass lid on the appliance.

8. Leave the appliance undisturbed and let the yogurt incubate for 4-10 hours.

9. After incubation, remove the yoghurt and store in a container in the refrigerator.

TIPS

– Incubation can be shorter (up to 4 hours) or longer (up to 10 hours) depending on the desired density of the yoghurt. The longer incubation time leads to a thicker and tarrier yoghurt.
– For a thicker Greek-style yoghurt: After incubation, spoon the yoghurt into a colander lined with cheese cloth and set over a bowl and leave the yoghurt in the fridge to drain for at least 1 hour (thicker yoghurt should be left to drain overnight).
Discard the whey (the liquid that passes through the cheese cloth) or keep it for yourself.
– Yoghurt can be stored in the fridge in covered glass, ceramic or plastic containers for up to two weeks (the taste will be at its best during the first week).
