Cooking eggs in your steamer

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

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

1. Do not fill more than half of the rice in the rice bowl.
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 FOR 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 eat more food.

1. If multiple layers are placed in the steamer, you can determine the optimal time for your favorite foods by experimenting.
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 becomes colorless. Steam fish until it is opaque absolutely.
5. Steam leafy vegetables as short as possible to keep them green and crispy.

TABLE OF COOKING TIME

CLEANING AND STORAGE

It is advised that you clean your food steamer and all of the used accessories after each use. Ensure that the steamer is unplugged before cleaning.

1. Always empty the water tank and drip tray after each use.
2. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the food steamer. To clean the base of the steamer. Rinse the water tank with clean, warm water and wipe the exterior with a clean, damp cloth.
3. All the other removable parts can be put in the dishwasher.
4. Never immerse any part of the steamer base, or cord, or plug in water and other liquid.
5. Stack the baskets one to the other following No.1 into No.2, then together into No.3. Put the rice bowl into the Steamer Baskets No.1. At last, place the baskets on the drip tray and put a lid over them all.
6. Your steamer is now ready to store in a clean, dry place in its upright position.

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 limescale 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 the “MAX” level, and 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 the water and vinegar. Wash the turbo ring in warm and soapy water and thoroughly rinse the water tank with warm water.
