HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
The temperature and baking
times in the tables are guidelines
only. They depend on the recipes,
quality and quantity of the ingre-
dients used.
COOKING WITH STEAM
Cookware for steam cooking
• Use only heat and corrosion resistant
cookware.
• Chrome steel food containers are cor-
rect too (see special accessories).
Steamer levels
• There are the correct steamer levels in
the table below. Count the steamer lev-
els from the bottom to the top.
General notes
• When you cook longer than 30 minutes
or when you cook large quantities of
food, add water if it is necessary.
• Put the food in the correct cooking con-
tainers on the shelves. Keep the dis-
tance between the shelves to let the
steam get to each food.
• If you do not use the steamer for a long
time, remove water from the water
drawer, connecting hoses and steam
generator (refer to section "Cleaning
and Care").
Note on the tables for Steam Cooking
• The tables give data for typical dishes.
• The temperature and time are for guid-
ance only and depend on the composi-
tion, size , quantity of food and the
cookware.
• Use almost the same recipe if you can-
not find the settings for your recipe.
• Start the cooking with the cold steamer
if the data in the tables does not rec-
ommend differently.
• Increase the amount of water for rice to
the ratio 1 : 1.5 - 1: 2 contrary to the
specifications in the table.
