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.
General notes Universal tray and combi rack Use the universal tray with the combi rack placed on top of it, e.g. for roasting and grilling. During roasting, you can use the meat juices collected in the tray to make a gravy or sauce. If you are using the universal tray with the combi rack on top, insert the universal tray between the rails of a shelf level and the combi rack will automatically slide in above them. When removing them from the oven, pull both out together.
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.

Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking With this gentle cooking method, food is cooked slowly and at a low, constant temperature in vacuum packaging. With vacuum cooking, no moisture evaporates during cooking and all nutrients and flavours are retained. The cooking result has an intensive taste and food is cooked evenly. Use only fresh food which is in a good condition. Ensure hygienic conditions and that food has not been out of the refrigerator too long, e.g. during transportation.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Important usage notes For best cooking results, follow the instructions below: - Use herbs and spices more sparingly than with conventional cooking methods because the impact on the taste of the food will be stronger. You can also cook the food unseasoned and add seasoning after cooking. - The cooking duration is reduced when salt, sugar and liquids are added. - The cooking durations depend on the thickness of the food. - Keep the door closed during the cooking programme.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Tips - In order to reduce cooking times, you can vacuum-seal food items 1–2 days before the cooking programme. Store the vacuum-sealed food in the refrigerator at no more than 5 °C. In order to preserve quality and flavour, the food should be cooked no later than 2 days afterwards. - Freeze liquids such as marinades before vacuum-sealing to prevent them from escaping from the bag. - Fold the edges of the vacuum sealing bag outwards for filling.
Sous-vide (vacuum) cooking Using the Sous-vide function Rinse the food with cold water and dry it. Place the food in a vacuum sealing bag and add spices or liquid if desired. Vacuum-seal the food in a chamber system vacuum sealer. For the best cooking results, place the rack on shelf level 2. Place the vacuum-sealed food on the rack (next to each other if there are several bags).
