Workplace
Important:
Never place this device on or next to hot surfaces (e.g. hot sto-ves). Only
use it on a even, stable and a heat resisting surface. It is important that no
inflammable items are near to the device. Do not place the device on the edge
of the table so that it cannot be touched by children or fall down when
touched.
Getting started
- Place the grill plat onto the device.
- Plug in the device.
- Turn the temperature selector to “max”. The grilling surface has to be preheated before placing any food on top of it. The preheating time is approx. 10 minutes. The thermostat clocks.
- Turn the temperature selector to the desired heating power:
- A high setting for medium / medium-raw meat
- A lower setting if the meat should be well-done
- A medium setting is perfect for cook au-gratin
- Do not place empty pans on the hot grill plate or the raclette level so that the coa-ting does not get damaged.
Purpose / Practical Tips
With this raclette device you have an ideal combination: you can prepare
raclette in the pans and grill on the grill plates. With this manual, we would
like to give you some general tips for a cosy raclette grill evening. You will
find many more recipes in modern cookbooks and magazines. While using the
pans, make sure that you do not overload them, otherwise they will not fit
properly into the device. Do not cut on the grill plates.
The following food can be put on the plates:
- Ribbed plate: meat, sausage, spits, vegetable
- Stainless steel grill plate: steak, crêpes, fried egg, etc.
Important note
Cold-pressed oils, such as olive oil should not be used as dripping as these
oils have a poor quality at high temperatures.
Due to the high grill temperatures (up to 250°C), residues of oil, juices,
herbs, etc. build up on the hot grill surface and the non-stick effect
decreases. It is hard or im-possible to remove these residues from the
grilling plate.
Therefore, only use heat-resistant oils!
Grilling on the grilling plates
When planning the evening, reckon on about 200 to 250 g of material per person. On the grill plate you can prepare meat (e.g. rump steak or mince), fish, and a wide variety of tasty dishes. A large number of side-dishes, sauces, and dips are suitable to accompany them.
- How well-done the dishes have to be, depends on the type of meat or fish, the length of time it takes, its initial temperature, and its thickness. lf you prefer your steaks not too rare, do not cut them too thick.
- The time you give meat or fish is a matter of your personal taste. Turn the meat or fish over from time to time.
- Finally, you can salt the meat or fish, or add a sauce to it. Do not salt before grilling as this draws the juice out.
Non-stick grilling plate (for RC 8):
This grill surface is coated for easy cleaning. On this area you can
barbecue meat and vegetables. Do not use sharp metallic objects such as forks
or knives to turn food over, as the coating may be damaged. Therefore, remove
possible residues during grilling only with kitchen paper.
Stainless steel grill plate:
This grill surface reaches very high temperatures and is therefore ideal to
grill steaks. The stainless steel plate can be scraped off with a scraper or
spatula while grilling.
Raclette dishes with the gourmet pans
You can fill the pans with all kinds of ingredients cut up small, whatever
takes your fancy, cover it with cheese, and heat it under the grill until the
cheese melts. Any-thing is suitable that you can think of for overbaking with
cheese, e.g. meat cut into tiny pieces, poultry, fish, fruits de mar, sausage,
fruit, and vegetables. There are spe-cially selected raclette cheeses on the
market, but you can try other kinds provided their tat content is over 45%.
Place the pans only into the corresponding recess! Never push the pans further, otherwise the handles may melt.
Overbaking „au gratin“ with cheese
You can use this raclette grill to cover the dishes you have made on the grill
with a delicious gratin cheese crust. Simply scatter grated cheese, possibly
mixed with cara-way seeds, over the dish, or lay it on top in slices, and
place the gourmet pan under the grill. The gourmet pan will be heated from on
top by radiant heat, just like under a grill. First the cheese will melt, then
it goes dark in colour. Take the pan out as soon as the cheese is a crisp
golden brown.
Old-original raclette cheese method
In this instance, the cheese is at the focal point of the raclette party. Plan
about 200 to 250 g of cheese and potatoes per person, and side-dishes as well.
Place a slice of cheese about 5 mm (3/8th of an inch) thick in the pan, cut to
fit, and push it in un-der the grill. Once the cheese has melted into a creamy
mass, take the pan out and extract the cheese with the aid of a small wooden
spatula and pour it onto boiled or foil potatoes, French bread, or toast.
