Vegetables
1. Clean the vegetables thoroughly. Cut off stems; trim, peel or chop if necessary.
Smaller pieces steam faster than larger ones.
2. Quantity, quality, freshness, size/uniformity and temperature of frozen food
may affect steam timing. Adjust water amounts and cooking time as desired.
3. Frozen vegetables should not be thawed before steaming.
4. Some frozen vegetables should be placed in the rice bowl and covered with a
piece of aluminum foil during steaming. The frozen foods should be separated
or stirred after 10-12 minutes. Use a long-handled fork or spoon to separate
or stir foods.
