Page 23

7.Using an insulated mitt, carefully lower the food basket into the boiling water, then place lid back on the cooking vessel. NOTE: Immersing the food basket will quickly reduce water temperature.

8.Increase cooker flame to desired level by turning regulator control knob as directed. It will take several minutes for water temperature to increase and achieve a rolling boil.

CAUTION

Once a rolling boil is achieved, reduce cooker flame to maintain the desired level. Lowering cooker flame reduces chance of a boil over during cooking.

FOLLOW 3-MINUTE : 15-MINUTE BOILING RULE

Boiling time varies with type of food being cooked. Seafood generally has the shortest boiling time. For superior cooking results, follow these simple steps:

1.Heat water to rolling boil.

2.Reduce cooker flame and carefully lower food basket into boiling water and cover the pot.

3.Increase cooker flame and cook until a rolling boil is achieved.

4.Leaving pot covered, reduce cooker flame and allow rolling boil to continue for 3-minutes.

5.After 3-minutes have passed, shut off gas to the cooker. Leave the pot covered and allow to set another 15-minutes.

During this 15-minute period, the food will continue to cook and absorb seasoning without being over-cooked. Generally, the 3-minute : 15-minute rule results in shrimp and crawfish being perfectly cooked, seasoned and easy to peel.

REMOVING BASKET FROM COOKING VESSEL:

1.Shut off gas to the cooker.

2.Wearing an insulated mitt, carefully remove lid from pot.

CAUTION

Remember, lift the far side of lid first to protect you from escaping steam and heat.

3.Wearing an insulated mitt, carefully and slowly lift basket from the cooking vessel.

4.Hold the basket above the cooking vessel to allow hot water to drain.

WARNING

Use extreme caution when lifting a food basket from boiling water.

Be certain cooker is turned off.

In addition to an insulated mitt, wear shoes, long pants and shirt sleeves to prevent burns from splashing hot water.

Food baskets in stockpots from 60-qt to 162-qt are very heavy and should be a 2-person operation.

A 2-person basket Lift Assist Bar is recommended for cooking vessels of 100-qt to 162-qt size.

5.Carefully pour out the food product and… enjoy!
