STEAMING TIPS

tCooking with steam is a healthy and efficient way to prepare food.

tThe steamer module can be used with either the solid or perforated insert pan.

tAlways preheat the steamer module except when slow- cooking.

tIt is recommended that you keep the glass lid on the steamer module during cooking time. This allows foods to cook quicker and keeps heat and water condensa- tion run off underneath the glass lid.

tWhen steaming, use a minimum of 10 cups (2.4 L) and a maximum 12 cups (2.8 L) water in the steamer basin.

tWhen preparing pasta, fill the steamer basin to the lip where the insert pans rest, or approximately 2 gallons (7.6 L). Use the perforated insert pan to cook and drain pasta when done. The insert pan has a capacity of 14 cups (3.3 L) cooked pasta or 6 cups (1.4 L) dry pasta.

tRemove large particles of food before draining the steamer basin.

tIf water is added during the cooking cycle, the safety mode may be initiated. Refer to water level safety feature on page 14.

tUse the perforated insert pan as a bamboo steamer. Place food in the insert pan and cover.

tBe sure to empty and clean the steamer basin after each use. Food and mineral deposits can cause corrosion.

CAUTION

When placing an insert pan into the steamer basin, use dry pot holders to protect hands from steam burns.
