11.2 Setting options with steam
There are various ways in which you can prepare your
food with steam.
Types of steam heating
A variety of types of steam heating are available for
which hot steam is used to gently prepare food.
ATTENTION!
A lot of steam is produced during operation with the
types of steam heating. Condensate that collects in the
drip trough underneath the cooking compartment may
overflow and damage adjacent units.
▶ Do not open the appliance door, or open it as infre-
quently as possible, while the appliance is in opera-
tion.
Steaming
During steaming
, the food is enveloped by hot
steam, which helps to retain the nutrients. This cooking
method also helps to retain the shape, colour and typ-
ical flavour of the food.
When temperatures between 105°C and 120°C are
set, the cooking time is reduced. This means that even
more nutrients and vitamins are retained when steam-
ing.
