INTRODUCTION
What Is a Steam Oven?
Steam ovens are just what they sound like –
ovens that use hot steam rather than hot air to cook food. They introduce a
whole new level of cooking to your kitchen, and can even reheat things more effectively than microwaves, making them an
awesome double whammy for your home. You can use a steam oven in place of a standard convection oven, or double it up
with your existing oven for even more range and cooking power.
How Do Steam Ovens Work?
Most steam ovens work by siphoning water from a small water tank into a built
-
in boiler, heating it to 212 degrees Fahren-
heit, and releasing the steam into the oven. This superheated steam is just as effective at cooking your food through as the
circulated hot air that makes convection work, and is often even faster.
Steam cooking is healthier than traditional cooking using microwave and traditional oven. The steam helps lock moisture
into whatever food is being cooked or reheated, eliminating the need for extra oils and fats to keep food moist. No more
getting trapped in the kitchen basting that turkey to keep it from drying out! It also help to retain the food's natural vitamins
and minerals.
