Steaming
Only use original accessories. When steaming in the
perforated steam container (size XL), always slide the
universal pan in underneath as well. Dripping liquid is
caught.
Steaming on one level
Use the shelf positions indicated in the settings tables.
Steaming on two levels
Steaming on two levels is very well suited to
simultaneously cooking broccoli and potatoes, for
example. In cases where the cooking times are
different, insert the foodstuff with the shorter cooking
time later.
■
Wire rack and attached steam container (size S),
perforated and/or unperforated: Level 3
■
Perforated steam container (size XL): Level 2
Cookware
If you use cookware, place it onto the wire rack or the
perforated steam container, size XL.
Ovenware must be heat and steam resistant. Cooking
times are increased when using cookware with thick
edges.
Food which would normally be prepared in a water bath
should always be covered with foil.
Cooking time and quantity
Cooking times when steaming are dependent on the
size of the pieces, but not dependent on the total
quantity. If a larger total quantity is used, the heating-up
time is increased and not the cooking time.
Larger pieces require a longer heating-up time and a
longer cooking time. If you are using several pieces
which are the same weight, the heating-up time is
increased, and not the cooking time.
Observe the unit sizes indicated in the settings table.
The cooking time is reduced for smaller pieces and
increased for larger ones. Cooking time is also
influenced by the quality and ripeness of the food. This
means that the setting values indicated are purely
guidelines.
Always distribute the food evenly in the cookware. It will
not cook evenly if the layers are of different depths.
When layering delicate foods in the cooking container,
do not pile them too high. It is better to use two
containers.
Rice and cereals
Add water or liquid in the proportion indicated. E.g.
"1:1.5" means adding 150
ml liquid per 100
g rice.
Menu cooking
With your appliance you can cook a whole menu at
once without the different flavours or aromas mixing
with each other.
Place the food with the longest cooking time in the
appliance first and add the rest at the appropriate time.
This means that all the food will be ready at the same
time.
The overall cooking time is extended with menu
cooking, as a little steam escapes each time the
appliance door is opened and has to be reheated.
Observe the information in the relevant paragraphs of
this section:
■
The heating-up time varies depending on the size
and weight of the food
■
The cooking time does not depend on the quantity
■
Use cookware that is steam-resistant
■
Cover soufflé with foil
■
