Some water will remain in the Water Reservoir after the
Steamer has turned off; this is normal.
Do not use any Steamer parts in microwave or on any cooking/heated surface.
How To Use
COOKING IN THE
STEAMING BOWL
(See Steaming Guide for suggested cooking times, techniques and water fill levels.)
CAUTION: To avoid steam burns and when checking foods while cooking, use long handled utensils/tongs.
Always use potholders to remove Cover. When removing the Cover, be careful to lift Cover slowly.
Figure A |
Fill Water Reservoir with cold tap water to appropriate fill line. For added flavor, you may add lemon juice, chicken broth, white wine and herbs/spices to the water in the Reservoir. Do NOT use beer, red wine, oil, spice extracts (i.e., vanilla) or fruit juices in the Reservoir.
Hold the Drip Tray by the handle and place it into the Base. (Figure A )
NOTE: The Drip Tray is always used whenever the Rice Bowl is not used. It prevents fats/juices of some foods from dripping into the water and bubbling up into the Steaming Bowl. If you choose, save these juices for gravies, sauces, soup stock, etc.
