Keeping warm
Fill the appliance with 0.23 gallons (1 liter) of
water and preheat it to the steam cooking setting.
Put the unperforated cooking insert with the hot
food into the appliance, switch back to the 170 -
180°F (80 - 85°C) position and close the glass
cover.
If you wish to use two cooking inserts at the same
time, first put the perforated insert into the
appliance and then the unperforated insert over
it.
The glass cover must be fitted.
Extracting juice (soft fruits)
Fill the appliance with 0.23 gallons (1 liter) of
water and preheat it to the steam cooking setting.
Place the unperforated cooking insert in the
basin first and then the perforated cooking insert
with the berries and close the glass cover.
You should leave the fruit in the appliance until no
more juice appears (about 120 minutes).
You can then squeeze the berries dry in a
dishtowel to preserved the last remainders of
juice.
Boiling down
Fill the appliance with 0.23 gallons (1 liter) of
water and preheat it to the steam cooking setting.
Boil down foodstuffs directly after shopping or
harvesting. Prolonged storage reduces vitamin
content and leads easily to fermentation.
Use only fruit and vegetables that are in a perfect
state.
Meat is not suitable for boiling down in the
steamer.
Check and thoroughly clean preserving jars,
rubber rings, clamps and springs.
Disinfect the rinsed jars before boiling down in
the steam (see Section entitled "Disinfecting").
Place jars in the perforated cooking insert in such
a way that they do not touch each other.
Open the glass cover after the cooking time has
ended and remove the jars once they have cooled
down fully.
Raising dough
Fill the appliance with 0.23 gallons (1 liter) of
water and preheat it at 100°F (45°C).
Place the unperforated cooking vessel with the
dough/dough mixture in the appliance.
If the dough/dough mixture mixture is to rise in a
bowl, a small raising basket or a baking dish, use
the perforated insert to place the vessel
containing the dough/dough mixture inside it.
Make sure that the glass cover can close fully.
The glass cover must be fitted.
Allow the dough/dough mixture to rise at 100°F
(45°C) until its volume has clearly increased
(about 30 min.).
