This section contains general information. You will find more
detailed information about particular foods and how to cook
them in the other sections.
Almost all vitamins and minerals are retained as the food is
not immersed in water.
Cooking with steam also retains the true taste of the food
better than conventional cooking. We therefore recommend
seasoning the food after it has been cooked. Food also
retains its fresh, original colour.
This appliance is supplied with stainless steel cooking
containers. Other containers, in a variety of sizes, both
perforated and solid, are available as optional extras (please
refer to "Optional accessories"). This enables you to choose
the most suitable container for the food you are preparing.
When using the Steam cooking function use perforated
containers where possible. These enable steam to reach food
from all sides and help it cook evenly.
You can also use your own containers. However, please note
the following:
– The container must be suitable for using in an oven and
must be steam resistant. Plastic containers can only be
used for steam cooking if the manufacturer has stated that
they are suitable for such use.
– Thick sided containers are not very suitable for using with
steam. They do not conduct heat well and as a result
cooking durations will be considerably longer than those
given in the charts.
