Guide for Steaming Vegetables, Poultry and Seafood

Put two liquid measuring cups of water into the cooking pot. Arrange foods in a single layer in the steaming tray. Vegetables should be cut in similar sizes as indicated. Cooking times are approximate and will yield cooked but crisp/tender vegetables. Add more time for more tender/softer vegetables or cut back on time for crispier vegetables to taste.

Foods must be removed immediately after vegetables have finished cooking to prevent overcooking. If cooking vegetables over rice, use chart to determine approximatley when to add steaming tray to rice cooker.

Note: A beep will indicate the end of a 3-minute preheating time. Cooking times below include the 3-minute preheat.
