NOTE: If the desired cooking time is less than 15 min-
utes, first turn the Timer past 15 and then turn it back to
the desired cooking time.
6. When cooking in the Rice Bowl, add rice, herbs, sea-
sonings and water directly to the Bowl and fill the Water
Resevoir to the appropriate line. Put the Steaming Bowl
onto the Base and place the Rice Bowl with contents
into the Steaming Bowl. (C)
7. Use pot holders when lifting the Steaming Bowl, Drip
Tray, or Rice Bowl by its handles after steaming. Lift the
cover AWAY from your face and body to avoid escaping steam.
8. The Rice Bowl can also be used for cooking vegetables or other foods with sauces,
poaching chicken or fish in liquids, or reheating foods like casseroles.
NOTE: Use the Drip Tray whenever the Rice Bowl is not used. It prevents fats/juices from
dripping into the water and bubbling up into the Steaming Bowl. If you like, save these
juices for gravy, sauce, or soup starters.

TIPS
Add fresh or dried herbs to the Flavor Scenter
®
Screen to spice up healthy foods. Thyme,
cilantro, basil, dill, curry, and tarragon are just a few herbs and spices along with garlic,
caraway, or horseradish that enhance flavor with no need to add salt.
Try the suggested flavoring listed in the Steaming Guide or use your favorite herbs to
create new combinations.
Flavor suggestions are for 1/2 to 3 (2.5 ml to 15 ml) teaspoons of dried herbs or
spices. If using fresh herbs, chop leaves and triple the amount.
To prevent small herbs or ground spices from falling through the Flavor Scenter
®
Screen, rinse or wet the screen before adding seasonings.
CAUTION: Unplug and allow the Steamer to cool before washing.
Bowls, Cover, and Drip Tray: Immerse in hot, sudsy water. Rinse thoroughly. Dry all
parts. May be washed in a dishwasher.
