Use of Common Accessories
1.
Basket Insert
An optional kettle basket insert set will assist in cooking water-boiled
products including eggs, potatoes, vegetables, shell fish, pasta and rice.
The nylon mesh liners must be used when cooking product smaller than
the mesh size of the basket, which is approximately 1/4" (6 mm). This
includes rice and small pasta shapes.
Tips for Use:
a.
Allow for water displacement by the baskets and product to be
cooked. This may mean only filling the kettle half full of water. Test
the basket and product displacement with the kettle OFF, and with
cold water in the kettle.
b.
Load baskets on a level, stable work surface.
c.
Lift the loaded baskets with both hands. Get help from another
person, if the basket is too heavy for safe handling.
d.
Slowly lower product into the kettle.
e.
When removing baskets with cooked product, lift basket straight up,
ensuring bottom of basket clears the rim and pouring lip of the kettle.
Wear protective oven mitts and protective apron.
f.
Allow hot water to fully drain from product, before moving basket
away from the kettle.
g.
If basket is too heavy for individual to lift and safely move, get help
from another person. Remove product immediately from basket into
another container, being sure to avoid contact with hot product and
hot basket or place basket with food on stable, flat surface, setting it
inside a solid steamer or bake pan, to catch any remaining hot water
draining from product.
