would cook it in a microwave oven. To

cooking.
• Reheating: the steam cooking function will
not dry foods out and gives a moister result.
A previously prepared home-cooked meal,
covered with aluminium foil, will take around
10-12 minutes to reheat. Ready meals will
require approximately double the time
indicated on the package.
• Defrosting: it is possible to use the steam
function to defrost foods. Times vary, but
defrosting with the steam cooking function
takes around half the time necessary for
covered foods left to defrost at room
temperature.
• Peeling peppers and tomatoes: this is very
easy to do when using the steam function.
Use a knife to cut a small cross in the skin of
the tomato, and steam cook for 1 minute.
Peppers have tougher skin, and may require
up to 4 minutes to soften it sufficiently for
peeling.
• Chocolate: this can be melted using the
steam cooking function. Place the chocolate
in a metal tray, cover with aluminium foil and
steam cook for 1 minute. Unlike other
methods, chocolate is unlikely to burn in the
steam oven.
• Hot towels: ideal for facial treatments, a
close shave or for use after a meal, these
are easy to prepare using the steam
cooking function. Moisten a towel with
water, roll it up and steam it for 1 minute.
