Sub-Zero Steamer Module - Manual (Page 13)

S T E A M I N G T I P S
Cooking with steam is a healthy and
efficient way to prepare food.
The steamer module can be used with
either the solid or perforated insert pan.
Always preheat the steamer module except
when slow cooking.
It is recommended that you keep the
domed glass lid on the steamer module
during cooking time. This allows foods to
cook quicker and keeps heat and water
condensation run off underneath the
glass lid.
When steaming food, use a minimum of
10 cups (2.4 L) and a maximum 12 cups
(2.8 L) water in the steamer basin.
When preparing pasta, fill the steamer
basin to the lip where the insert pans rest,
or approximately 2 gallons. Use the perfo-
rated insert pan to cook and drain pasta
when done. The insert pan has a capacity
of 14 cups (3.3 L) cooked pasta or 6 cups
(1.4 L) dry pasta.
Remove large particles of food before
draining the steamer basin.
If water is added during the cooking cycle,
the safety mode may be initiated. Refer to
Water Level Safety Feature on page 11.
Use the perforated insert pan as a bamboo
steamer. Place food in the insert pan and
cover.
Be sure to empty and clean the steamer
basin after each use. Food and mineral
deposits can cause corrosion.

Dimensions in parentheses are in

When hot, do not place the glass lid on a
cold surface or under cold running water.
It may crack. Replace the glass lid if it is
damaged.
