Steam cooking / Meat

Fresh meat

Prepare the meat in the usual way.

Deep frozen meat

Meat should be thoroughly defrosted beforehand (see "Defrosting").

Preparation

For meat which needs to be seared before being cooked, e.g. stewing steak, sear the meat in a pan on the hob. Then place it in the oven to cook it with steam.

Temperature

Sausages should be cooked with steam at a temperature of 90 °C. They will burst at higher temperatures.

Duration

The cooking duration depends on the thickness and consistency of the food and not the weight. The thicker the food, the longer the cooking duration. A 10 cm thick piece of meat weighing 500 g will take longer to cook than a 5 cm thick piece of meat weighing 500 g.

The cooking duration for sausages is between 2 and 10 minutes depending on thickness.

Useful tips

Use a perforated container to retain the flavours when cooking meat. Place a solid container underneath to catch the juices.

You can use these to make a gravy or freeze them for later use.

Prime beef topside is particularly successful when cooked in stock or gravy at 90 °C.
