HINTS, TIPS AND FOOD SAFETY
•
Ensure the base unit always contains an adequate level of water during use.
•
The steaming lid should be kept on at all times during steaming.
•
To stop steaming at any time, unplug the unit. DO NOT try to turn the timer
anticlockwise because this will damage it.
•
Arrange food in a single layer.
•
Uniformly cut foods will steam more evenly.
•
Stir food halfway through a longer steam cycle for more even steaming.
•
Foods that require longer cooking times should be placed in lower steaming
baskets.
•
Place foods that require gentle steaming or shorter cooking times in higher
baskets.
•
You'll need to experiment to find the times which suit your favourite foods and
food combinations.
•
Use the rice bowl to cook any foods that are in a sauce or liquid.
•
Poultry or fish juices may drip and transfer flavours. To help prevent this, wrap
them in foil.
•
Don't use mussels that are open prior to cooking. Steam until the shells open
fully, and discard any that aren't open after cooking.
•
Cook meat, poultry, etc. until the juices run clear. Cook fish till the flesh is
opaque throughout.
