Steaming Guide
Steaming times and portion sizes stated below are an approximate guide and are for recommendation only. Times may vary depending on
the size of the food, the spacing of the food in the Container (3), the freshness of food and personal preference. As you become familiar
with the steamer, adjust cooking time as required.
Steaming times are for the quantities stated in the guide, for larger or smaller quantities adjust the time accordingly.
Vegetables
Cut off thick stems from broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage.
Steam leafy, green vegetables for the shortest possible time as they loose colour easily.
For best results, salt and season vegetables after steaming.
Frozen vegetables should not be thawed before steaming.
