Function Description of function
Simmering
Automatically identifies a power level that is suitable for simmering long-cooking recipes. Suitable for cooking tomato sauce,
ragu, soups, minestrone, maintaining a controlled cooking level (ideal for cooking in a bain-marie). Prevents food from
boiling over (e.g. spurting) or sticking to the bottom and burning, as often happens with these recipes.
Melting
Automatically identifies a power level that is suitable for slowly melting delicate products without compromising their
sensorial quality (chocolate, butter, etc.).
6th Sense
Sixth sense
bringing water
to the boil
Automatically identifies when water reaches boiling point and reduces the power to a level that maintains boiling until the
food is added. When the water reaches boiling point an acoustic signal is emitted, and any ingredients can be added
(e.g. condiments, pasta, rice, vegetables, meat and fish to be boiled) but also homemade preserves or accessories to be
sterilized.
Flexible zone
This function combines two cooking zones and allows you to exploit the combined surface area for large rectangular or oval
shaped cooking receptacles or grilles. For grilling large quantities or pieces of food (fish, kebabs, vegetables like red chicory,
steaks, German sausages).
For cooking recipes like rolled roast joints or whole fish, generally accompanied with a sauce or stock, using a casserole dish/
fish kettle/pan
