Steam cooking
Steam cooking guidelines
o
When using a steam cooking function always start with the oven
cold. If you use a steam function immediately after traditional
cooking when the oven is still hot, this is considerably decrease
the benefits of steam cooking.
o
When steam cooking, always try to use the perforated tray
together with the drip tray. The perforated tray allows the steam
to fully cook the food while draining all the cooking juices
through the holes.
o
The drip tray should be inserted on a lower shelf level to the
perforated tray to collect all of the dripping cooking juices and
therefore keep the oven cavity cleaner.
o
IMPORTANT: After you have finished steam cooking the oven
will automatically start the cycle for emptying the water circuit.
Steam cooking at 100°C
o
The steam produced by the generator enters the cavity at 100°C
and is distributed so the food is uniformly heated and cooked.
o
The benefit of steam cooking in this way is that you can cook on
three levels simultaneously by placing “denser” foods on the
highest level and less dense foods like vegetables on the lower
ones.
o
IMPORTANT: During steam cooking always slide the drip
tray under the perforated tray to collect any food or
condensation that might fall.
o
Turn on the oven by pressing the power button. Place
the food that you wish to steam cook into the oven and
close the door.
