• Reheating foods: the steam function will
not dry the foods and will improve
moisture content. A previously prepared
home-made meal, covered with
aluminium foil requires about 10-12
minutes to cook. Ready meals require
about double the amount of time
indicated on the packaging.
• Defrosting: the steam function can be
used to defrost foods. Times may vary,
but defrosting using steam takes about
half the time compared to leaving
covered foods to defrost in a corner of
the kitchen.
• Peeling tomatoes and peppers: this is
very easy to do when using the steam
function. Cut a small cross on the skin of
the tomato using a knife and steam for
about 1 minute. Peppers have tougher
skin and it will take up to 4 minutes to
soften them sufficiently for peeling.
• Chocolate: it can be melted using the
steam function. Place the chocolate in the
metal tray, cover with aluminium foil and
steam for 1 minute. Chocolate is unlikely
to burn in the steam oven.
• Hot towels: useful for facial care such as
a close shave or for use after a meal.
They are simple to prepare using the
steam function. Dampen a towel with
water, roll it up and heat using steam for
1 minute.
