General notes This section contains general information. You will find more detailed information about particular foods and how to cook them in the other sections. The advantages of cooking with steam Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is not immersed in water. Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food also retains its fresh, original colour.
General notes Shelf level Cooking duration You can select any shelf level. You can also cook on several levels at the same time. This will not alter the cooking duration. During steam cooking, the cooking duration does not begin until the set temperature is reached. When using more than one deep container at the same time for steam cooking, it is best to offset them on their runners and to leave at least one level free in between them.
Steam cooking Eco Steam cooking Notes on the cooking tables You can use the Eco Steam cooking function to save energy during steam cooking. This function is suitable mainly for cooking fish and vegetables. Follow the instructions on cooking durations, temperatures and cooking notes. We recommend following the cooking durations and temperatures from the tables specified in “Steam cooking”. You can cook for longer if necessary.
Steam cooking Vegetables Fresh Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual way, i.e. wash, clean and cut them up. Frozen food Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted beforehand, unless they have been frozen together in a block. Frozen and fresh vegetables which take the same length of time to cook can be cooked together. If vegetables have frozen together in clumps, break these up before cooking with steam. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging regarding cooking duration.

Steam cooking Fish Fresh Prepare fresh fish in the usual way, i.e. clean, gut and fillet. Frozen food Fish does not need to be fully defrosted before cooking. Defrost so that the surface is sufficiently thawed to take herbs and seasoning. Depending on the thickness of the fish, 2 - 5 minutes should be enough. Preparation Add some lemon or lime juice to fish before cooking. The citric acid helps the flesh stay firm.
Steam cooking Tips - Adding herbs and spices, such as dill, will help bring out the full flavour of the fish. - Cook large fish in swimming position. To help maintain the shape of the fish, place a small cup or similar upside down in the cooking container, and arrange the fish belly-side down over the cup. - You can use any fish scraps, e.g. fish heads, bones, tails etc to make a fish stock. Place the fish scraps together with some mixed vegetables in a solid cooking container and add cold water.

Steam cooking Pasta Dry pasta Dry pasta swells when it is cooked and needs to be cooked in liquid. The liquid must cover the pasta. Using hot liquid gives better results. Increase the cooking time stated by the manufacturer by approx. ¹/₃. Fresh food Fresh pasta, such as the kind you can buy from the supermarket chilled counter, does not need to absorb water. Cook fresh pasta in a greased perforated container.
Steam cooking Dumplings Ready made boil-in-the-bag dumplings need to be well covered with water as otherwise they can fall apart. This is because even though they have been soaked in water beforehand they will not absorb enough moisture. Cook fresh dumplings in a greased, perforated container.
Steam cooking Dried pulses Soak pulses for at least 10 hours in cold water before cooking. Soaking makes the pulses more digestible and shortens the cooking duration required. Soaked pulses must be covered with liquid during cooking. Lentils do not need to be soaked before cooking. With unsoaked pulses a certain ratio of pulses to liquid is required depending on variety.
Steam cooking Unsoaked Ratio Pulses : Liquid [min] Kidney beans 1:3 130–140 Adzuki beans 1:3 95–105 Black beans 1:3 100–120 Pinto beans 1:3 115–135 Haricot beans 1:3 80–90 Brown lentils 1:2 13–14 Red lentils 1:2 7 Yellow split peas 1:3 110–130 Green split peas 1:3 60–70 Beans Lentils Peas Duration 64
Steam cooking Hen's eggs Use a perforated container to boil eggs in the steam oven. The eggs do not need to be pierced before cooking as they are gradually warmed during the heating up phase and so do not burst when they are cooked with steam. When using a solid container for making egg dishes such as scrambled eggs, remember to grease it first.
Steam cooking Fruit Sausages Cook fruit in a solid container so that none of the juice is lost. If you wish to cook fruit in a perforated container, place a solid container directly underneath it to collect the juice. Settings Tip: You can use the juice which has collected in the solid container to make a glaze for a fruit flan.
Steam cooking Shellfish Preparation Defrost frozen shellfish before cooking with steam. Peel, remove and discard the intestines, and then wash the shellfish. Cooking containers If using a perforated container, grease it first. Duration The longer shellfish are cooked, the tougher they become. Use the cooking durations given in the chart. When cooking shellfish in sauce or stock, we recommend that you increase the cooking duration quoted by a few minutes.
Steam cooking Mussels Fresh food Danger of food poisoning from spoiled mussels. Spoiled mussels can cause food poisoning. Only cook mussels which are closed. Do not eat mussels which have not opened after being cooked. Steep fresh mussels in water for a few hours before cooking to rinse out any sand. Then scrub the mussels thoroughly to clean them. Frozen food Defrost frozen mussels before cooking. Duration The longer mussels are cooked, the tougher they become.
Steam cooking Menu cooking (cooking whole meals) Before cooking meals with the manual menu cooking function, switch off steam reduction (see “Settings – Steam reduction”). When cooking a menu, you can combine different foods with different cooking durations, e.g. fish fillet with rice and broccoli. The food is placed in the steam oven compartment at different times so that each item is ready at the same time. Shelf level Place foods that produce a lot of liquids (e.g. fish) or have a distinctive colour (e.
Steam cooking Cooking a whole menu Place the rice in the oven compartment first. Set the 1st cooking duration: 18 minutes. After the 18 minutes, place the fish into the appliance. Set the 2nd cooking duration: 2 minutes. After the 2 minutes, place the broccoli into the appliance. Set the 3rd cooking duration: 4 minutes.
Further applications Reheat Tips The steam oven is very effective at reheating food gently, without drying it out or cooking it further. The food will reheat evenly and does not need to be stirred during the reheating process. - Do not reheat large items, such as a joint of roast meat, whole. Divide it into portions and reheat these as plated meals. You can reheat individual dishes or plated meals which have been prepared previously (e.g. meat, vegetables and potatoes).
Further applications The durations specified in the table are guidelines only. We recommend selecting the shorter duration initially. You can increase the duration if necessary. Food * [min] Vegetables Carrots Cauliflower Kohlrabi Beans 6–7 Side dishes Pasta Rice 3–4 Potatoes, halved lengthways 12–14 Dumplings 15–17 Meat and poultry Sliced meat, 1.
Further applications Food * [min] Consommé 2–3 Stew 4–5 Duration * These times apply to food heated on a plate and covered with a plate.
Further applications Defrost Cooking containers It is much quicker to defrost food in the steam oven than at room temperature. Use a perforated container with a glass or condensate tray underneath it when defrosting food which will drip, such as poultry. This way food will not be lying in defrosted liquid. Risk of infection from bacteria. Bacteria such as salmonella can cause life-threatening food poisoning.
Further applications The durations specified in the table are guidelines only. We recommend selecting the shorter defrosting time initially. You can increase the defrosting time longer if necessary.

Further applications Disinfect items Prove dough The steam oven can be used to disinfect baby bottles and other containers so that at the end of the programme they are as germ free as they would have been had they been boiled. Check beforehand that all parts, teats etc. are declared by the manufacturer to be heat resistant to 100 °C and also that they can withstand hot steam. Prepare the dough according to the recipe. Dismantle, clean and thoroughly rinse baby bottles.
Further applications Heating damp flannels Dissolve gelatine Moisten the flannels and then roll them up. Soften gelatine leaves by leaving them in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes. The gelatine leaves have to be fully covered with water. Remove the gelatine leaves from the bowl and squeeze them out. Empty the bowl. Place the squeezed gelatine leaves back in the bowl. Place them beside one another in a perforated cooking container.
Further applications Decrystallise honey Melt chocolate Loosen the lid and place the jar of honey in a perforated container. You can use the steam oven for melting any type of chocolate. When using a cake covering, place it in a perforated cooking container, leaving it in its packaging. Stir the honey once during the cooking duration.
Further applications Make yoghurt To make yoghurt, you will need either fresh live yoghurt or yoghurt culture, obtainable from health food shops. Use natural yoghurt with live culture and without additives. Heat-treated yoghurt is not suitable. The yoghurt must be fresh (short storage time). You can use either unchilled long-life milk or fresh milk. Long-life milk can be used as it is – no further preparation is required.
Further applications Cook bacon Sweat onions The bacon does not brown. Sweating means cooking the onions in their own juices, with the addition of a little fat if necessary. Place the bacon (diced or rashers) in a solid cooking container. Cover the container with foil that is temperature-resistant up to 100 °C and resistant to steam.
Further applications Extracting juice with steam Extracting juice from fruit This appliance is ideal for extracting juice from soft, firm and hard fruit.
