Mr.C recommends:

Always open the CONVOTHERM carefully.
The escaping steam can cause scalding!
■ Season
Rinse, butter and season vegetables after
steaming.
■ Thickened vegetables
Steam the vegetables in perforated vessels
and simply collect the stock in unperforated
containers placed underneath.
■ Asparagus
Boil asparagus with a high bitterness in the
asparagus stock in unperforated vessels.
