HOW TO CHOOSE FUNCTIONS
STEAM / FAST COOKING
The STEAM / FAST function is good for cooking “Fast foods” or
veggie broth, or steaming foods, quick stew or soup, one pot meal, from
30 minutes to up to 1 ½ hours, depending on amount of food and liquid
added.
It is recommended to cook for 2 hours or less. If you want to cook
longer than 2 hours, choose “SLOW setting instead.
A full pot load takes about 40 to 60 minutes to reach to a boil. At
the first 1-2 hours cooking, you will lose some liquid due to
evaporation by a boil (about ½ to 1 cup per hour). The boil will be
slowed down over the course as the clay release the heat slowly and
keeps your food heat evenly.
ALWAYS
cook with liquid present at least 3 cups (US cup) in the pot
to
avoid burning or dry heating your pot.
Use the cooking chart for the first-time cooking and reduce or add
liquid amount and time as needed thereafter.
