STEAMING T I P S

Cooking with steam is a healthy and efficient way to prepare food.

The steamer module can be used with either the solid or perforated insert pan.

Always preheat the steamer module except when slow cooking.

It is recommended that you keep the domed glass lid on the steamer module during cooking time. This allows foods to cook quicker and keeps heat and water condensation run off underneath the glass lid.

When steaming food, use a minimum of 10 cups (2.4 L) and a maximum 12 cups (2.8 L) water in the steamer basin.

When preparing pasta, fill the steamer basin to the lip where the insert pans rest, or approximately 2 gallons. Use the perfo- rated insert pan to cook and drain pasta when done. The insert pan has a capacity of 14 cups (3.3 L) cooked pasta or 6 cups (1.4 L) dry pasta.

Remove large particles of food before draining the steamer basin.

If water is added during the cooking cycle, the safety mode may be initiated. Refer to Water Level Safety Feature on page 11.

Use the perforated insert pan as a bamboo steamer. Place food in the insert pan and cover.

Be sure to empty and clean the steamer basin after each use. Food and mineral deposits can cause corrosion.

When hot, do not place the glass lid on a cold surface or under cold running water. It may crack. Replace the glass lid if it is damaged.

Dimensions in parentheses are in millimeters unless otherwise specified.
