OPERATION

2.4.6.MANUAL WATER FILL

If the appliance is equipped with manual water fill or mixing valve, it is recommended that the knob is set so that water enters the tank slowly during cooking. Turn the knob counterclockwise to increase the flow of water into the tank.

Some appliances are equipped with a regulated mixing valve where the left knob is for regular filling and the right knob has a regulated flow rate specifically for refilling the tank during cooking and reheating.

2.4.7.COOKING TIPS

Rinse pasta after cooking only if it is for cold dishes or if the pasta will NOT be served immediately.

For best results when cooking dry pasta, use at least 1 gallon of water for every 1 lb. of dry pasta.

Sticky cooked pasta can be avoided by increasing the quantity of water per pound or use of the manual fill option while cooking (if equipped). The manual fill should be set to a trickle while cooking to allow the water continue boiling.

When storing pasta, keep the sauce separate because the pasta will continue to absorb liquids after cooking.

Cooking oil can be added to cooked pasta prior to storage to prevent sticking. 1-2 tsp. of oil per pound (cooked) is typical.
