STEAM COOKING
(“Steam” MENU)
STEP 1. Add water into the inner pan; place the desired food to be steamed into the
steam basket and close the lid. Please refer to the water level below:
Water level (use the supplied measuring cup):
1.0 L type (5.5-cup rice cooker) ...3 1/4 cups (585 mL/20 oz)
1.8 L type (10-cup rice cooker) ....4 1/2 cups (810 mL/28.5 oz)
Note: Be careful not to add too much or too little
water into the inner pan for steaming.
STEP 2. Plug the cord into an electrical outlet
STEP 3. Press the [Menu] key to select “Steam” menu
Each touch on the [Menu] key gives off a “beeping” sound,
and the arrow icon indicates on “Steam” menu blinks.
With stewed foods, flavors seep in better if
the food is first heated and then kept warm
for a while.
Tip:
Under “Slow Cook”, the food is first brought to a near boil,
then it is lowered to about 207°F/97°CF/97°C/97°C and left to simmer.
The temperature is then lowered even further to about 198
°F/92°CF/92°C/92°C and simmering continues. By gradually lowering
the heat, flavors seep in well. Even after heating for a long
period of time, there is no worry about liquids boiling down.
This process is ideal for slowly simmering large quantities
of food for long periods of time such as stew or oden
(hotchpotch)!
Delicious meals made easy with
「炊きたて」
Easy-to-make authentic dishes
that bring out the flavor of
ingredients.
Note
• Stir foods well to prevent seasonings from settling to
the bottom of the inner pan.
• To simmer foods in broth, cool the broth before
starting the cooking process.
• To thicken with starch, add the starch at the very
end of the cooking process.
• Kneaded foods such as fish sausage and fish paste
swell when heated, therefore be careful how much
is used.
• Remove cooking odors after cooking. (See “How to
Deodorize” on p. 27.)
• If the food is not cooked, do not press the [Cancel]
key to further cook the food. The Keep warm lamp
goes out and the food cannot be cooked further. (If
pressed by accident, remove the inner pan and set
it on a wet kitchen towel, leave the rice cooker lid
open for about 10 minutes and cool the rice cooker
and the inner pan. Then, set the inner pan back in
the rice cooker and start cooking again.)
