General notes when cooking with Steam Steam Cooking The advantages of cooking with steam Vitamins and minerals are better retained, as the food is not immersed in water. When cooked with steam, food retains its natural taste better than with conventional cooking. We therefore recommend not to season the food at all or only after it has been cooked. Food retains its fresh, natural color. Suitable cooking utensils Cooking pans Included with the appliance are stainless steel cooking pans.
General notes when cooking with Steam – Place the cooking pans on the inserted rack, not on the oven floor. – Ensure that there is a gap between the upper rim of the pan and the top of the cooking compartment to allow sufficient steam into the pan. Shelf level You can select any shelf level and also cook on several levels. If you simultaneously use several high cooking pans for steam cooking, insert the cooking pans offset to each other. If possible, leave a level between the cooking pans.
General notes when cooking with Steam Cooking time (duration) In general, the cooking times for cooking with steam are the same as for cooking food on a cooktop. More information about any factors which may affect the cooking duration is given in the relevant sections of this manual. The quantity of food does not affect the cooking time. 2 lbs (1 kg) potatoes will take the same time to cook as 1 lb (500 g) potatoes. The cooking times given in the tables are guidelines only.
Steam Cooking Vegetables Fresh vegetables Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual way, i.e. wash, clean and chop. Frozen vegetables Frozen vegetables do not need to be defrosted beforehand. Exception: Vegetables that have been frozen in a block. Frozen and fresh vegetables with the same cooking time can be cooked together. If vegetables have frozen together in clumps, break them up.
