Using the Steam Baskets and Rice Bowl

Using a Single Steam Basket
1. Place the food in steam basket no.1.
2. Place the steam basket on the steamer base and put the lid on.
Using Multiple Steam Baskets

the lowest steam basket.
2. Stack the steam baskets on the steamer base and put the lid on.
Using a Single Steam Basket with the Rice Bowl
1. Place rice and water in the rice bowl.
2. Place the rice bowl in steam basket no.1.

Useful Hints and Tips
• Steaming times stated in the charts and recipes are intended as a guide. If you have followed
the instructions and the food is still not sufficiently cooked, simply steam for a little longer until
satisfied.
• A single layer of food steams faster than several layers. More cooking time is required for a larger
quantity of food, for example 2lb of cauliflower will need a longer steaming time to steam than
1lb.
• For best results, make sure pieces of food are similar in size. If pieces vary in size and layering is
required, place the smaller pieces on the top.
• Do not crowd food in the steaming basket or rice bowl. Arrange the food with spaces between
the pieces to allow for maximum steam flow.
• When steaming large quantities of food, remove the lid about halfway through the steaming time
and check using a long handled utensil, protecting your hands from the steam with oven gloves.
• Never steam meat, poultry or seafood from frozen. Always thaw completely first.
• All the times stated in the Recipes section are based on the use of cold water, but to slightly
reduce the steaming time you may use warm (but not boiling) water to start. Stated times are
guidelines only. Please adjust for personal taste and food type.
• The rice bowl is an ideal container for steaming other foods such as fruit, vegetables, vegetable
pates, puddings, etc.
• Always place the largest pieces of food with the longest cooking time in the lowest basket.
• You may place different foods in the upper and lower baskets, but as condensation will drip from
the upper basket be sure the flavours complement each other.
