Note:
·These steaming charts
are for reference only.
Actual cooking times
may vary depending on
the cut of meat being
used.
·Altitude, humidity and
outside temperature will
affect steaming times.
·Since most vegetables
only absorb a small
amount of water, there
is no need to increase
the amount of water
when steaming a large
serving of vegetables.
·To ensure meat tastes
its best, and to prevent
possible illness, check
that meat is completely
cooked prior to serving.
If it is not, simply place
more water in the inner
pot and repeat the
cooking process until
the meat is cooked.
·Food can be steamed
at any time while rice
cooks. However, for best
results, food should be
steamed toward the
end of the rice cooking
cycle. This will allow
for rice and steamed
food to be ready at
the same time. See the
"Rice/Grain & Water
Measurement Tables"
in an Aroma
®
ARC-753
or ARC-757 series rice &
grain cooker manual for
approximate cooking
times.
·Food should not be left
in the cooker on
Keep
Warm
for more than 12
hours.
Helpful
Hints:
Smaller foods may
be placed on a heat
resistant dish and then
placed onto the steam
tray. Parchment paper
or aluminum foil may
be used as well. Place
the paper foil in the
center of the steam tray
and ensure it does not
create a seal along the
bottom of the steam
tray. For best results,
it is recommended to
puncture small holes in
the paper/foil.
