Holiday Appliance Tips

 
Each year at this time, we receive calls with questions about the proper techniques and care for the kitchen appliances in preparation for the Holiday Season. Here are some tips that will help make things just a little less stressful for you.



  • NEVER use the self-cleaning option of your oven prior to cooking your Holiday meal. The most common cause of control panel failure in an oven is the heat from using the self-cleaning cycle. And, the rules of Nature dictate that if it were to fail, Christmas dinner is the time.For optimal results, make sure the dishwasher has a full container of the rinse aid

  • If your dishwasher is cloudy or not cleaning properly, chances are you have been using too much soap. The easiest way to remedy the issue is to use the Dishwasher Cleaner and Descaler by Miele. We have used this product with excellent results in many dishwashers and highly recommend it.

  • When using the Convection option in your oven, the general guideline is that the same recipe will now bake approximately 30% faster and the temperature should be 25 degrees lower. As an example, if you turkey recipe calls for 12 minutes per pound, you should adjust it to approximately 8-9 minutes per pound.

  • As always, we highly recommend you utilize the manufacturer websites as a resource for tips, recipes, and techniques. Take a look at this special Holiday section of the SubZero-Wolf website to help make your Holiday meal that much easier.

Merry Christmas!           Happy Hanukkah!            Happy New Year!


May your Holidays be bright!
