One burst of steam takes approx.
5–8 minutes. The number of bursts of
steam and when they are injected will
depend on the type of food being
cooked:
– Yeast mixtures will rise better if
steam is injected at the beginning of
the programme.
– Bread and rolls also rise better if
exposed to steam at the start.
Injecting a burst of steam at the end
of the programme will give the bread
and rolls a glistening crust.
– When roasting meat with a high fat
content, injecting steam at the
beginning of roasting will help render
the fat.
Additional moisture is not suitable for
mixtures which already contain a lot of
moisture, such as choux pastry and
meringues, as the addition of steam
does not allow them to dry out
sufficiently.
Useful tip: See the recipe book for
more information.
