HELPFUL HINTS

1. Since most vegetables only absorb a small amount of water, there is no

need to increase the amount of water with a larger serving of

vegetables.

2. Always keep the lid closed during the entire steaming process. Opening

the lid causes a loss of heat and steam, resulting in a slower cooking

time. If you find it necessary to open the lid, you may want to add a

small amount of water to help restore the cooking time.

3. Altitude, humidity and outside temperature will affect cooking times.

4. The steaming chart is for reference only. Actual cooking time may vary.
