2. Basket Insert
An optional kettle basket insert can assist in cooking water-boiled products
including eggs, potatoes, vegetables, shell fish, pasta and rice. The nylon mesh
liner must be used when cooking product smaller than the mesh size of the
basket, which is approximately 1/4” (6 mm). This includes rice and small pasta
shapes.
TIPS FOR USE:
a. Allow for the water displacement of the basket and product to be cooked.
This may mean only filling the kettle half full of water. Test the basket and
product displacement with the kettle OFF, and with cold water in the kettle.
b. Load basket on a level, stable work surface.
c. Lift the loaded basket with both hands. Get help from another person if the
basket is too heavy for safe handling.
d. Slowly lower product into kettle.
e. When removing basket with cooked product, lift basket straight up,
ensuring bottom of basket clears the rim and pouring lip of the kettle. Wear
protective oven mitts and protective apron.
f. Allow hot water to fully drain from product, before moving basket away
from the kettle. Do not rest kettle basket on kettle rim or pouring lip. If
basket is too heavy for individual to lift and safely move, get help from
another person. Remove product immediately from basket into another
container, being sure to avoid contact with hot product and hot basket
or
g. Place basket with food on stable, flat surface, setting it inside a solid
steamer or bake pan, to catch any remaining hot water draining from
product.
