of food with different cooking times, place
those items with the longest cooking time
in the lower steaming top. To ensure that
all food will be ready at the same time, we
recommend the following method: begin
with steaming the larger items (i.e. those
items that are placed in the lower insert)
fi rst, until their remaining cooking time
equals the cooking time of the food yet to
be cooked; now add the other steaming
top(s) to the assembly.
∙ When steaming larger food quantities,
carefully remove the lid halfway through
the steaming process, turn over the food
and put the lid back on. Caution : beware
of escaping steam. There is a danger of
scalding .
∙ The juice collected in the tray during the
steaming process can be used for sauces
etc.
Cooking times
The cooking/steaming times listed are approximate times only, as each food to be steamed is of
