Hints for Steaming Food
The unit is perfect for cooking vegetables, fish, meat and poultry.
Steaming is a most gentle and healthy way of preparing food.
When cooking marinated food slightly dap off excess liquid form the
food and then place the food into the steam insert.
Add spices after steaming.
Thaw frozen food such as meat, fish etc. prior to place it in the unit.
Frozen vegetables do not need to be thawed.
Do not place the portioned food too close together, otherwise steam
cannot rise sufficiently.
If possible portion the food into equal parts. Cut off thick stems and
remove stalk (e. g. when cutting broccoli, cauliflower etc.) Always cut
the vegetables in small pieces (strips, tips, cubes etc.). Remove the
stems from the mushrooms.
Cut fish in pieces of max. 2 cm thickness, season and wrap in
aluminium foil. Remove heading and tailing of the shrimps. Remove
the scallops from the shells.
When steaming large parts, turn around during half time cooking.
Steam leafy and green vegetables for the shortest possible time as
they will lose colour easily.
