Temperature
A maximum temperature of 100 °C is reached in the steam
oven. Most types of food will cook at this temperature. Some
more delicate types of food, such as soft fruit, must be
cooked at lower temperatures as otherwise they will burst.
More information is given in the relevant section.
Combination with a Gourmet warming drawer
When the warming drawer is in use the oven cavity in the
steam oven can get up to 40 °C. If, in this case, you set a
temperature of 40 °C, no steam will be produced because the
oven cavity is too warm.
Duration
In general, the cooking durations for cooking with steam are
the same as for cooking food in a saucepan. More
information about any factors which may affect the cooking
duration is given in the relevant sections.
The quantity of food does not affect the cooking duration.
1 kg of potatoes will take the same time to cook as 500 g.
The durations given in the charts are guidelines only. We
recommend selecting the shorter cooking duration quoted to
start with. If food is not cooked sufficiently after the shorter
time it can be put back in the oven and cooked for longer.
Cooking with liquid
When cooking with liquid only fill the cooking container
2
/
3
full
to prevent the liquid spilling when the cooking container is
removed from the oven.
Your own recipes
Food and recipes which are prepared in pot or a pan can
also be cooked in the steam oven. The cooking times in the
steam oven will be the same. Please note that food will not
brown or crisp when cooking with steam.
