8.2 Cooking times - fish
• Frozen fish can be cooked without being
thawed. Ensure that the individual pieces
are separated from one another so that
the steam can get everywhere. The
cooking time may be extended by a few
minutes for thicker pieces.
• Keep an eye on cooking time.
Undercooked fish is still glassy inside.
Overcooked fish can become dry.
8.3 Cooking times - meat
• Select only lean, soft meat and remove
all the fat from it.
• The pieces of meat should not be too
thick. Meat suitable for grilling is also
good for steaming.
• Any fat still in the meat is reduced further
by the steaming process.
• Poultry, in particular, needs to be cooked
right through to prevent the risk of
salmonella infection.
• Pierce sausages to stop them bursting.
