Review

I am mystified by why the cookbook said a maximum of 72 minutes, but the program was set for 2:25. That threw off our dinner plans and I wound up having to save the chicken to make salad with the next day. The meat was good for chicken salad, but I don't know how it was on the day-of. The legs seemed a bit dried out, which is not surprising because that seems like a long time to cook such a small bird. It may have done better if I had trussed it. Overall seems like a better approach for a larger bird.

Reheat Leftovers Program - Miele Combi Steam Oven

This is probably my first truly successful custom program; we use it all the time in our house, and it has replaced the microwave for most things. It heats things through quickly without drying them out. It works best if you place the leftovers on a plate or in the solid cooking pan or universal tray, so they are spread out. Chunky things (i.e. roasts) should be sliced first, to provide more surface area.

Use: Special Modes → Reheat
