Suitable containers

Stainless steel cooking containers are supplied with the appliance.

Other containers are available in a variety of sizes, both perforated and solid, as optional accessories.

Please note when selecting cookware:

Use perforated cooking containers whenever possible. The steam can reach the food from all sides and cook evenly.

For thicker items, e.g. potatoes, build larger spaces between them. It is best to space food as much as possible so steam can surround each piece. Larger and deeper containers can be used for larger items.

Dense dishes such as casseroles or food such as peas or asparagus which have little space between them will take longer to cook because the steam has less space to work in. The more of this type of food the container becomes filled with, the longer the cooking time will be. It is best to use 2 or 3 shallow containers for these foods. The recommended cooking times are for shallow containers. For larger fill heights the cooking time is extended.

See "Cooking tips" for more information.

You can also use your own containers and dishes. However, please note the following:

The container must be heat resistant up to 212°F (100°C). Heat resistant glass, ceramics, porcelain (chinaware), plastics, stainless steel or enamel dishes are all suitable.

Food will take longer to cook in a dish with thick sides.

Place the dish on the supplied rack.

Ensure that there is a gap of at least 1" (3 cm) between the upper rim of the container and the top of the cooking compartment to allow sufficient steam into the container.
