How to use the Varoma
Your Varoma is an accessory designed for the Thermomix™ and can only be
used with the Thermomix™. Before you can start steaming with the Varoma
you will need to set up your Thermomix™ correctly:
Step 1: Set up Thermomix™
Place the mixing bowl into position. Pour at least 0.5 litre (500 g) of water
into the mixing bowl for up to 30 minutes steaming. If you steam with the
simmering basket, insert the simmering basket and fill it with ingredients,
e.g. potatoes or rice. Close the mixing bowl with the mixing bowl lid.
For a flavoursome variation you can use a vegetable broth or water-wine-mix
instead of water.
Step 2: Filling the Varoma
Place Varoma lid upside down on your work surface 4 and position Varoma
dish on top – it fits precisely into the groove. Now loosely fill the Varoma dish
with food 5 . Make sure that some slots remain unobstructed so that the
steam can spread evenly. As you fill the Varoma, put the food requiring longer
cooking at the bottom, and food requiring shorter cooking at the top.
The Varoma lid underneath the Varoma dish will stop the liquid from washed
vegetables, ripe fruit, raw meat or fish from wetting your work surface.
CauTIOn
Danger of scalding by hot steam and hot condensed water
• ensure that the hole in the mixing bowl lid and some slots of the Varoma
dish and tray remain free of food to avoid an uncontrolled escape of
steam.
• Be sure to position the Varoma correctly onto the mixing bowl and
Thermomix™.
