COOKING HINTS
•The steamer efficiently cooks vegetables or other foods for immediate serving.
•Steam cooking should be carefully time controlled.
•Keep hot food
•Prepare small batches, cook only enough to start serving, then cook additional amounts to meet demand.
Preparation
Prepare vegetables, fruits, meats, seafood and poultry normally by cleaning, separating, cutting, removing stems, etc. Cook root vegetables in a perforated pan. Other vegetables may be cooked in a perforated pan unless juices are being saved. Liquids can be collected in a solid 12" x 20" (30 x 50.8 cm) pan placed under a perforated pan.
Perforated pans are used for frankfurters, wieners and similar items when juices do not need to be preserved.
