SelectSteam

Select Steam has 3 settings: High Steam, Low Steam and Keep Warm.

Select Steam Settings

High Steam

The High Steam setting gives best results to vegetables, shellfish and other foods that benefit from a very moist environment with minimal browning.

By setting the temperature at 250°F (120°C), the lowest setting allowed, you can achieve similar results to steaming on the cooktop.

Use the broiler pan and grid or a low-sided baking dish for best results.

Preheating is not recommended.

Cooks cheese-topped casseroles such as lasagna without over-browning the cheese topping.

For best results, do not use the Select Steam settings for green beans, artichokes and beets.

Low Steam

The Low Steam setting gives best results to casseroles, roasted vegetables or other foods that you want to cook with more browning, but keep moist.

Use a low-sided baking dish for best results.

Preheating is not recommended.

Keep Warm

The Keep Warm function allows hot cooked food to stay warm before serving without drying them out.

For more information see the “Keep Warm” section.
