Steaming in the steam basket

and in the black rice bowl

Notice: The quantities and processing times are approximate for steaming in one steam basket
(e. g. model FS 10). The steaming times listed in the charts also apply when steaming smaller
quantities. When steaming larger quantities the steaming times may be somewhat longer if there
is not enough space to permit sufficient steam circulation.
Tips for steaming with the model FS 20: The steaming times in the upper steam basket are longer.
Therefore,
• steam larger pieces or food with longer steaming times in the lower steam basket.
• When steaming different kinds of food with different steaming times: Steam food with a longer
steam time in the lower steam basket. After some time place the steam basket containing food
with a shorter steaming time on top of the lower steam basket for steaming.
Vegetables and fruits
• Cut off thick stems from cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage.
• Steam leafy, green vegeteables for the shortest possible time as they lose colour easily.
• Frozen vegetables should not be thawed before steaming.
