Steaming time (min) Suggested herbs/spices for Flavour
15-20
15-20
Thyme, coriander, basil, dill, curry and tarragon are some of the herbs
and spices that you can put in the Flavour Booster+. You can combine
them with garlic, caraway or horseradish to enhance flavour without
adding salt. We advise you to use 1/2 to 3tsps of dried herbs or spices.
Use more if you use fresh herbs or spices.
When you use liquids like wine or lemon juice, you can fill the Flavour
Booster+ up to the 'max' indication.
For more tips about herbs, spices and liquids to use in the Flavour
Booster+, see the food steaming table above.
Cut off thick stems from cauliflower, broccoli and cabbage.
Steam leafy, green vegetables for the shortest possible time, because
they lose colour easily.
Do not thaw frozen vegetables before you steam them.
Tender pieces of meat with a little fat are most suitable for steaming.
Wash meat properly and dab it dry, so that as little juice as possible
drips out.
Always place meat, poultry, fish or eggs below other food types, to
prevent dripping of juices.
Puncture eggs before you put them in the steamer.
Never steam frozen meat, poultry or seafood. Always let frozen meat,
poultry or seafood thaw completely before you put it in the steamer.
Add some cinnamon to desserts to enhance sweetness instead of
adding more sugar.
To prepare rice, you have to add water with the rice in the fish/rice
bowl (5). For the amounts, see the food steaming table above.
You can also use the fish/rice bowl (5) to prepare vegetables in sauces
or to poach fish in water.
Leave gaps between the pieces of food.
If the steaming bowl is very full, stir the food halfway through the
steaming process.
Small amounts of food require a shorter steaming time than large
amounts.
