GUIDE FOR STEAMING VEGETABLES, POULTRY AND SEAFOOD
Put two liquid measure cups of water into the cooking pot. Arrange foods in a single layer in

tender/softer vegetables or cut back on time for crispier vegetables to taste.

overcooking. If cooking vegetables over rice, use chart to determine approximatley when to
add steaming tray to rice cooker.
