hints
Condensation will drip from the upper basket into the lower basket. So
make sure the flavours go well together.
Liquid left over in the drip tray is good for making soup or stock. But be
careful: it will be very hot.
You can also use the rice bowl for cooking anything in liquid (eg
vegetables in sauces or poaching fish in water).
Leave gaps between pieces of food. And put the thicker pieces nearer
the outside.
Stir large amounts half way through cooking.
Smaller amounts cook faster than larger amounts.
Similar-sized pieces of food cook evenly.
Like a conventional oven, you can add food as you go along. If
something needs less time, add it later.
If you lift the lid, steam will escape and cooking will take longer.
Food will keep cooking when your steamer switches off, so remove it
immediately.
The cooking times on pages 9 - 11 are guides based on using the
lower basket. The higher the food is, the slower it cooks. So allow an
extra
5 - 10 minutes for food in the next basket above. Check that food is
thoroughly cooked before eating.
If your food's not cooked enough, reset the timer. You may need to top
up with water. Here's how. Unplug. Then empty the drip tray and top up
the water tank - but be careful of the hot liquid and steam.
