1. Clean vegetables thoroughly. Cut off stems; peel or chop if
necessary. Smaller pieces steam faster than larger ones.
2. Quantity, quality, freshness and size/uniformity may affect steam-
ing times. Adjust steaming time as desired.
The times in the VEGETABLE STEAMING CHART (next page) are ap-
proximate. Set the Timer and check for doneness at the suggested
cooking time; continue cooking if necessary. The size and shape of the
food, as well as personal taste, may call for adjustments. If you want
softer vegetables, add more water if necessary, and steam for addi-
tional time. Do not allow the water in the Steamer Base to boil dry.
nOTe: Foods that steam in the THIRD (III) or SECOND (II) Basket(s)
may require additional cooking time.
