Oven: Using Steam Infused Cooking
Steam Infused Cooking cooks foods fast and healthy all
by the introduction of steam during the cooking process.
The Steam Roasting technique can be applied to a variety
of meats you would traditionally roast in your oven. Some
cuts of meat benefit from searing BEFORE roasting while
other cuts benefit from searing AFTER roasting, refer to the
recipes in the included Inspiration Guide.
• No preheating is required when searing before roasting.
• Most meats can be seared for less than 10 minutes. You
do not want to cook the meat, simply brown the meat to
add color.
• Add water to the bottom of the cooking pot. In general, 1
cup of water equals 10 minutes of steam time.
• If additional water is required during the cooking
process, cautiously lift the lid away from you and add
room temperature water. Water should NOT exceed the
roasting/steaming rack or touch the food as that will
result in poaching.
Use caution when placing hot meats on roasting/
steaming rack.
CAUTION: DO NOT add any liquids to the base of the
main housing of the appliance.
Steamer:
Steam cooking is easy and fast when you use the STEAMER
function for your favorite vegetables and light entrees. Refer
to the included chart for recommended water and time
settings.
1 Add water to pot according to recipe/chart and cover
with the lid (1-4 cups).
2 Plug the unit into the electrical outlet
3 Turn Function dial to Steamer and set the time according
to recipe/chart. Unit will beep and timer will show “P: ”
while preheating.
4 While the unit preheats, arrange the food onto the
Roasting/Steaming Rack
5 When the water is fully boiling, the unit will beep and the
timer will begin to count down.
6 CAREFULLY open the lid away from you, insert the rack
with the food into the pot with mitts
7 Check food occasionally and remove food promptly when
done to avoid overcooking..
8 When the timer reaches “0:00”, the unit will go into Auto
Warm mode.
NOTE: If water runs out before the timer shows “0:00”,
the unit will pause. If water is added, the unit will begin
to bring it to a boil at which point the timer will continue
where it left off.
WARNING: Place the vent hole on the lid facing away from you.
WARNING: Use oven mitts when moving the unit, opening the lid, and when inserting or removing food.
