The Elite Gourmet EST250 can cook up to 6 eggs using its BPA-free steamer tray. To cook hard-boiled eggs:
1. Fill the water reservoir with the appropriate amount of water. 2. Place up to 6 eggs in the steamer tray. 3. Cover the steamer with the lid. 4. Set the timer for the recommended cooking time (typically around 12-15 minutes). 5. Once the timer goes off, carefully remove the eggs and place them in cold water to stop the cooking process.
Always follow the safety precautions in the instruction manual.

Can I steam rice in this steamer? If so what kind of bowl would I use since rice would fall through the bottom without using one? Thank you!
