Steam your way to perfection: The ultimate guide to Gorenje Steam Ovens

In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, finding time to bake can be a challenge. Whether you’re a busy parent, a working professional, or someone who simply loves the art of baking, achieving perfect results can sometimes feel like an elusive dream. But what if there was a way to simplify the process and ensure that every bake is a success? Get acquainted with Gorenje steam ovens, your new best friend in the kitchen.

Challenges in using the oven

Baking is a delicate art that requires precision and patience. From ensuring the right texture to achieving the perfect crust, there are numerous factors that can affect the outcome. Traditional ovens can fall short in providing the consistent moisture needed for certain recipes, leading to dry or unevenly baked goods. This is where steam ovens come into play, offering a solution to these common baking woes.

Benefits of using steam in baking

Steam is a game-changer in the world of baking. It helps to maintain the moisture content in the oven, ensuring that your baked goods are soft and fluffy on the inside while achieving a beautiful golden crust on the outside. The use of steam also enhances the flavour and texture of the food, making it more appealing and delicious. Additionally, steam cooking preserves the nutrients in the food, making it a healthier option for you and your family.

Gorenje ovens with steam functions

Gorenje offers a range of steam ovens designed to cater to different baking needs. These ovens are equipped with advanced steam functions that make baking easier, more efficient, and more enjoyable. Let’s explore the different levels of steam options available in Gorenje ovens:

> EXTRA STEAM

The Extra Steam function is perfect for small bakery products like buns and toasted items such as croissants and pre-baked rolls. By pouring water into a shallow tray before baking, steam is generated upward, giving your food a glossy appearance on the crusty surface.

> STEAM ASSIST

For those who love baking simple pastries, cakes, strudels, and bread, the Steam Assist function is ideal. Water is poured into a reservoir and pumped into an evaporation tray, generating steam that ensures even growth, tender baked goods, and more browning.

> STEAM ASSIST PRO

The Steam Assist Pro function takes it a step further, making it perfect for preparing meat, pastries like cheesecakes and macarons, and roasted vegetables. The steam generator evaporates the steam, which enters the oven cavity via a fan cover, resulting in a distinct brown-golden colour, improved texture, and a perfectly crunchy crust.

> FULL STEAM

For those who want to explore steam cooking to its fullest, the Full Steam function is the way to go. This function is perfect for steam cooking vegetables, fruits, sous vide cooking, poaching eggs and fish, and preparing desserts like crème caramel. The steam generator ensures that the food retains its minerals and vitamins, making it a healthy and delicious option at once.

Gorenje steam ovens are designed to simplify your baking process and deliver perfect results every time. If you plan to use steam occasionally, the Extra Steam function will suffice. However, if you are a steam baking enthusiast, the Steam Assist function is your best bet. With various steam functions tailored to different baking needs, you can enjoy the art of baking without the stress and hassle. So, why not let Gorenje steam ovens take the reins and savor the moments that truly matter? Happy baking!
