3. Pour into cups or small screw-top jars and cover with cling
film.
4. Preheat the cooking compartment as indicated.
5. Place the cups or jars on the cooking compartment floor and
incubate as indicated.
Proving dough

ceramic dish and cover.
2. Preheat the cooking compartment as indicated.
3. Switch off the oven and place the dough in the cooking
compartment and leave it to prove.
Defrost

dish on the wire rack.
Please observe the instructions on the packaging.
The defrosting time will depend on the type and quantity of the
food.
Place poultry on a plate with the breast side facing down.
Drying
With : 3D hot air, you can dry foods brilliantly.
Use unblemished fruit and vegetables only and wash them
thoroughly.
Drain off the excess water, then dry them.
Line the universal pan and the wire rack with greaseproof or
parchment paper.
Turn very juicy fruit or vegetables several times.
Remove fruit and vegetables from the paper as soon as they
have dried.

crack.
Only use fruit and vegetables in good condition. Wash them
thoroughly.
The times given in the tables are a guide only. The time will
depend on the room temperature, number of jars, and the
quantity and temperature of the contents. Before you switch off
the appliance or change the cooking mode, check whether the
contents of the jars are bubbling as they should.
Preparation
1. Fill the jars, but not to the top.
