Steam
The essential elements of the steam set are the extra-
deep pan, the plastic frame and the glass lid.
Choose the appropriate steam container according to
the quantity and size of the food. To cook rice or
sauces, you can also use the size S, solid steam
container.
Only use the original parts supplied.
You can find further information about steaming in the
enclosed booklet.
You can also use the extra-deep pan individually to
prepare large quantities of bakes, for example.
Steaming
Do not open the oven during cooking. Exception: When
combining different foods that have considerable
differences in their cooking times.
The cooking time is determined by the size of the food
being cooked. If you are simultaneously cooking food
with different cooking times:
■
Cut the food with the longer cooking time into
smaller pieces
■
Lengthen the cooking time for delicate foods by
cooking larger pieces.
In general, 500 ml of water (no distilled water) is used
for steaming. Exception: Foods that soak up water (e.g.
potatoes) and ingredients with long cooking times
require 750 ml of water (see the cooking table or
enclosed booklet).
