Steam Infused Cooking:
Steam Infused Cooking cooks foods fast and healthy all
by the introduction of steam during the cooking process.
The Steam Roasting technique can be applied to a variety
of meats you would traditionally roast in your oven. Some
cuts of meat benefit from searing
BEFORE
roasting while
other cuts benefit from searing
AFTER
roasting, refer to the
recipes in the included Inspiration Guide.
1
No preheating is required when searing before
roasting.
2
Most meats can be seared for less than 10 minutes. You
do not want to cook the meat, simply brown the meat
to add color.
3
Add water to the bottom of the cooking pot. In general,
235 ml of water equals 10 minutes of steam time.
4
If additional water is required during the cooking
process, cautiously lift the lid away from you and add
room temperature water. Water should
NOT
exceed
the roasting rack or touch the food as that will result in
poaching.
Use caution when placing hot meats on roasting rack.
CAUTION
:
DO NOT
add any liquids to the base of the
main housing of the appliance.

Hints & Tips
1
Cooking times may vary based on the selected
temperature, the current temperature of the cooking
pot and the temperature of the ingredients.
2
Always use nonstick utensils in the cooking pot and
multi purpose pan. Metal utensils may damage the
non-stick coating.
3
For even browning, make sure that the food is in an
even layer on the bottom of the cooking pot or roasting
rack.

Cooking time and temperature can be adjusted at
any time during the cooking cycle in Slow Cook and
Oven. Press the Time/Oven Temp button and turn the
Adjustment Dial to adjust.

Cooked foods may not brown or crisp on top as much
as in a conventional oven. Instead foods will brown on
the bottom and crisp on the bottom and sides.

If you do not manually set a temperature and time, the
unit will automatically start at the preset temperature
and time.
