Using Your Roaster Oven/Warmer (cont.)
Baking
The Roaster Oven can bake your favorite cakes, pies, breads, or casseroles like a conventional oven.
Pans and dishes should be placed on the Rack for best heat circulation. Using the Rack is also
recommended for convenience in removing hot dishes and pans from Roaster Oven.
Do not remove the Lid of the Roaster Oven unless necessary. Removing the Lid allows heat to escape
and affects the temperature of the Roaster Oven.
Steaming
Preheat Roaster Oven to 450ºF (230ºC). To steam in the Roaster Oven, you will need a metal colander.
Place Rack in the Insert Pan. Place Insert Pan in Roaster Oven.
Pour 1 quart (1 L) boiling water into the Insert Pan. Place food to be steamed in the colander and place
colander in Insert Pan. Cover and steam according to the following times or until desired doneness.

2 cauliflower heads, cut up

2 bunches of broccoli, cut up
10 minutes
2 pounds (900 g [31.7 oz]) shrimp

Warming Rolls, Biscuits, etc.
Preheat Roaster Oven to 250ºF (120ºC). You will need two small ovenproof containers to hold water.
Emptied and washed food cans are perfect. Fill the cans two-thirds full with hot water and place in
opposite corners of the Insert Pan. Stack rolls, biscuits, or pancakes in Insert Pan. Do not let them touch
sides of Pan. Cover and keep warm up to 1 hour.
Quantity Cooking
The Insert Pan may be used as a large cooking utensil when cooking or heating large quantities. It may
be used to simmer sauces, soups, or stews, or simply to heat or warm large quantities. When cooking
or heating soups or stews in the Roaster Oven, stir occasionally for quicker, even heating. For example,
set the Temperature Control Knob at 400°F (200ºC) and the Roaster Oven will warm vegetable beef
soup from refrigerated temperature to serving temperature in about two hours. To cook soups, stews,
or sauces, set the Temperature Control Knob on 225°F (110ºC) and allow 4 to 8 hours to simmer,
depending on recipe.
