HELPFUL HINTS
1. Steam cooking times will vary depending on the size, freshness, amount of
food being cooked and the desired degree of doneness. Use the Steaming
Charts as a guide but experiment with this healthy method of cooking by
varying the cooking times. This will help you to obtain the best results to suit
your taste.
2. Smaller pieces of food cook faster than larger pieces; a single layer steams
faster than several layers and foods of uniform size will steam more evenly.
3. Foods with longer steaming times should be placed on the lowest level of
the food steamer. Once these foods are partially cooked, remove the Cover
and add the other Steaming Bowls, if required.
4. Arrange food with spaces between pieces to allow for maximum steam flow.
5. When steaming large quantities of food, stir halfway through cooking.
6. Juices from meat or poultry should not drip onto other foods. Never place
meat or poultry in the Middle or Top Steaming Bowls above other foods.
7. Do not steam frozen meat, poultry or seafood.
