10.9 Getting the most out of your steam
oven
The cooking tables in this section contain a selection of
dishes that can be easily prepared in the steam
convection oven. You can find out which oven mode,
accessories and cooking time are best suited for your
dish. If not specified otherwise, this information applies to
dishes placed in a cold appliance.
WARNING
Do not use aluminum foil or protective liners to line any
part of the appliance, especially the oven bottom. Installing
these liners may result in risk of electric shock or fire.
Accessories
Use the accessories that come with the appliance.
¡
Ovenware
If you use ovenware, always place it in the center of the
¡
rack.
The ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Thick-
¡
walled ovenware extends the cooking time.
Use foil to cover food that would normally be prepared
¡
in a water bath (such as when melting chocolate).

Cooking times and quantities
When steaming, the cooking times are based on the
¡
size of the piece, not on the entire quantity of food.
The appliance can steam up to 14 lbs. (6.4 kg) of food.
¡
Note the sizes of pieces listed in the tables. The
¡
cooking time is shorter for smaller pieces and longer for
larger pieces.
The quality and age of the food also affect the cooking
¡
time. The values provided serve only as a guideline.
Distribute food evenly
Always distribute the food evenly in the ovenware. If the
¡
food is placed unevenly in the ovenware, it will cook
unevenly.
Delicate food
Do not layer delicate foods too high in the baking pan. It
¡
is better to use two pans in this case.
Cooking an entire meal
Place the food with the longest cooking time in the
¡
appliance first and then add the remaining dishes at the
appropriate time. This will ensure that all dishes are
ready at the same time.
The total cooking time will be longer when cooking an
¡
entire meal, since every time the appliance door is
opened, some steam escapes and the appliance has to
reheat.
