SIMMERING BASKET

The simmering basket is used for preparing more delicate dishes. It can also be
used for filtering fruit or vegetable juices or as a sieve.
When reducing liquids (e.g. sauces), the simmering basket can also be placed
on the mixing bowl lid and used as a splash guard instead of the measuring cup.
The simmering basket has a lid, which makes it even safer to use and prevents
it from being overfilled. It is permanently attached to the basket and should not
be removed at any time.
HOW TO INSERT THE SIMMERING BASKET
• Put the simmering basket into the mixing bowl. The hook for the spatula
should point towards the handle on the mixing bowl.
HOW TO REMOVE THE SIMMERING BASKET
HAZARD
Risk of scalding from hot contents.
You could scald yourself on hot food in the simmering
basket.
• Use care when removing the simmering basket.
• Ensure that the spatula is hooked securely onto the
simmering basket before taking the simmering basket out.
• Once you have put the simmering basket down, remove the
spatula to prevent the simmering basket from tipping over.
Use the spatula to remove the simmering basket. Proceed as follows:
1. Place the hook of the spatula into the notch of the simmering basket.
Ensure that the hook is securely attached to the simmering basket.
2. Remove the simmering basket from the mixing bowl using the handle of the
spatula. You can then transfer the simmering basket to the sink to allow any
water to drain away.
3. Once you have put the simmering basket down, remove the spatula to
prevent the simmering basket from tipping over.
The spatula is removed by releasing the hook from the notch.
5.6 VAROMA®
The Varoma® is used for steaming food. The Varoma® consists of three parts:
the Varoma® dish (bottom), the Varoma® tray (middle) and the Varoma® lid
(top). This makes it possible to prepare several different components of a dish
at the same time.
The Varoma® can also be used without the Varoma® tray to steam larger items
(e.g. dumplings) or prepare larger quantities.
For instructions on using the Varoma®, see Steaming [} 28].
