The following are some handy hints on steaming
your fish and seafood:

1. Place fish in the Steamer tray.

2. If fish or seafood is to be poached or cooked

in a sauce, use the Rice Cooker bowl.

3. Add lemon wedges, herbs and seasoning

before steaming, as desired.

4. Add butter or margarine after steaming, if

desired.

5. Fish is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork

and is opaque in colour.

6. Frozen fish may be steamed without

defrosting, except for fillets which need to be
defrosted and separated before steaming.
Fillets are best steamed in a single layer.

7. When steaming frozen fish, extend the

steaming time.
