Cooking Techniques

Steaming

Steamed foods are tender and juicy, retaining most of their nutritional value. Most foods are suitable for steaming, including fish, seafood, chicken, vegetables, buns and dumplings.

When steaming, foods can cook very quickly so be sure to monitor your cooking progress. Place food on the steaming rack provided and place in wok over simmering water or stock. Cover with glass lid.

Note: The liquid should only be just simmering. If the heat is too high it may cause the liquid to bubble up over the food. Heat settings 2-3 should be sufficient.

Stewing and Braising

The wok can be used on a low heat to make your favourite stews and casseroles. The lid should be left on when stewing.

Braising is a variation to stir-frying where liquid is added at the end of stir-frying and the ingredients are left to simmer, usually uncovered.
