Steaming
Intensive steaming at 100 – 130° C / 212 – 260° F
Meat
Meat is cooked gently and remains juicy and tender. Especially suited
for diet cooking.
Vegetables
Stuffed vegetables cook gently and remain juicy, retaining flavour and
colour.
Regenerating/rethermalizing (large quantities).
Regenerating means re-heating of ready-made foodstuff. The integrated
live-steam generation helps to make food look and taste most
appetizing and fresh.
Regenerating
Regenerating at high temperatures – intensive steaming - is used for
larger quantities of vegetables and side dishes.
Re-heating times vary between 3 and 8 minutes, according to product,
quantity and quality. If the pans are filled up too high or if the products
are placed too close, re-heating times will be longer.
Use intensive steaming to can, preserve or sterilize home-made dishes,
compotes or fruit.
Do not use too high or too big cans or jars.
Conserving
In the high temperature area between 100 and 130 °C
It’s also an opportunity to preserve fruits in cans, jars etc and to sterilize
them. Do not use too big containers as the outside of fruits could
overcook.
Cooking
To reduce the regular cooking times adjust higher temperatures for low
sensitive products like red beets, potatoes.
