Cooking eggs in your steamer

Each steaming basket has 6 egg holders built into their base. To cook eggs in the shell, simply place one egg into each holder by the eggs’ smaller end down.(Fig.D)

Cooking rice in your steamer

Included with your steamer is a specially designed rice bowl which allows you to cook rice in your food steamer.

1. Do not fill more than half of rice in the rice bow.
2. Add water to the rice bowl (the rice will absorb some of the water)
3. Place the rice bowl in the upper steam bowl. When you put rice under other food items, the juices of those foods change the taste of the rice and extra moisture can cause the rice to stick.
4. It takes about 15-20 minutes to steam the rice, depending on the type, amount and personal preference
5. Taste after 15 minutes and cook longer if necessary.

TIPS OF COOKING TIME
The times are for a single layer of food. Extend the time if there are 2 or 3 more layers as the steamer needs to heat more food.

1. If multiple layers are placed in the steamer, you can determine the optimal time for your favorite foods by experiment.
2. The cooking time can only be considered as a reference.
3. Check if the food items are sufficiently cooked before serving them. In case of doubt, steam longer
4. Steam meat, poultry and similar products (minced meat, hamburgers etc.) until the juice goes out and become colorless. Steam fish until it is opaque absolutely.
5. Steam leafy vegetables as short as possible to keep them green and crispy.

DESCALING YOUR FOOD STEAMER
Depending on the hardness of your water supply and how often you use the steamer, we recommend descaling the heating element every 8 uses to minimize lime scale build-up. To descale the heating element, place the turbo ring upside down around the heating element. The larger end should be facing upwards. Ensure that the steamer is turned off and unplugged. Fill the water tank with cold water up to “MAX Ievel, fill the turbo ring with white vinegar to the same level. Leave it overnight to descale. Do not heat up (to avoid the descaling odor). The next morning, discard of the water and vinegar. Wash the turbo ring in warm and soapy water and thoroughly rinse the water tank With warm water.
