Vegetables
Fresh food
Prepare fresh vegetables in the usual
way, i.e. wash, clean and cut them up.
Frozen food
Frozen vegetables do not need to be
defrosted beforehand unless the veg-
etables have been frozen together in a
block.
To cook frozen vegetables, program the
same time as for fresh ones.
Break up the larger, frozen together
pieces. Please refer to the cooking
times on the packaging.
Cooking pan
Food such as peas or asparagus
spears, which have little or no space
between them, will take longer to cook
because the steam has less space to
work in. For an even result, it is best to
use a shallow container for these types
of food, and only fill it about
1-2" (3-5 cm) deep. When cooking large
quantities divide the food between 2 or
3 shallow containers rather than using
one deep one.
Different types of vegetables which take
the same length of time to cook can be
cooked together in one cooking pan.
Use solid containers for vegetables
which are cooked in liquid, e.g. cab-
bage.
Shelf level
When cooking vegetables with a dis-
tinctive color (e.g. beets) in a perforated
container at the same time as cooking
other foods in other containers, place
the drip tray directly underneath the
perforated container to catch any drips
and therefore avoid any color transfer.
Cooking duration
As with conventional methods, when
cooking vegetables with steam, the
cooking duration will depend on the
size and also whether you want the
vegetables to be al dente or soft/well
done. Example:
firm potatoes, cut into quarters
= approx. 17 minutes
firm potatoes, cut in half
= approx. 21 minutes
