Temperature setting 6 is suitable for slow cooking to complete seared, minor to medium-sized, high-quality cuts of meat (beef, lamb, pork, veal) no thicker than 6 cm. We recommend cooking more significant pieces of meat in an oven or combi-steam oven. Cooking meat at a low temperature for longer makes it tender and succulent.

Preparations

First, sear the meat and then let it cook in the warming drawer at low temperature.

• Use suitable glass, porcelain or ceramic cookware.

• Preheat the drawer containing the cookware at setting level 6.

• Heat a little fat in a pan and sear the meat.

• Place the meat in the preheated cookware in the drawer to cook to completion.

The searing times below refer to the sealing of meat in hot fat.
