TIPS FOR YOUR FOOD STEAMER
Single-layer food cooks faster than multi-layer food, so food in
•
large quantities takes longer to cook.
For better results, the size of the food you steam should be
•
similar. If the food size changes greatly, put smaller pieces on
the top.
Do not overfill the steam trays with food, and leave space
•
between the food so that the maximum amount of steam can
pass through.
When cooking a large amount of food, the lid of the steamer
•
can be removed for stirring, it is recommended to use long-
handled utensils or oven gloves to avoid scalding.
Do not add salt or seasonings in the water tank during cooking
•
to prevent damage to the heating element.
Do not directly steam frozen meat or poultry, defrost the meat
•
completely first.
The time indicated on the countdown timer is calculated by
•
initially using cold water in the water tank.
Steam trays can be used to steam other food, such as fruit,
•
vegetables & puddings.
When using all three steam trays at the same time, place the
•
largest pieces of food that need to be steamed for a long time
in the lowest steam tray.
You can cook different foods in the steam trays, and since
•
juices will seep down from the top, note that the taste
can travel between trays. If you are steaming meat with
vegetables, place the meat in the lower layer to prevent juices
from dripping on other foods when they are steaming.
