Steamed foods retain most of their nutritional value when cooked in the Multi
Chef Pro. Foods may be steamed by placing food in the stainless steel steaming
tray over stock or water in the cooking bowl and covering with the glass lid. Keep
the glass lid on while steaming food unless the recipe or chart specifically states
to remove the lid. By removing the lid steam is lost unnecessarily and the coo-
king time will be extended.
1. Measure 3 Multi Chef Pro rice scoops or more of water or stock and pour into
the cooking bowl. Use up to a maximum of 6 rice scoop cups of water.
2. Place food to be steamed directly into the stainless steel steaming tray and in-
sert into the cooking bowl.
3. Place removable cooking bowl with the steaming tray in housing and cover with
the glass lid. Attention: Do not overfill the steaming tray to allow for proper fit
of the lid on the cooking bowl.
4. Plug the appliance connector end into appliance inlet. Plug power cord into a
suitable power outlet. The START/CANCEL button and RISOTTO button surrounds
will illuminate in white.
5. Press the RICE/STEAM setting, the button surround will illuminate in white, the
button surround of the RISOTTO button will go out. Then press the START/CAN-
CEL button to activate the setting. The START/CANCEL button surround will il-
luminate red and cooking will commence.
6. When steaming is complete, the ready beeps will sound and the multi cooker
will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM setting.
7. If no further steaming is required, press the START/CANCEL button to cease ope-
ration. Then unplug power cord and allow the appliance to cool.
Note:
•
Keep the glass lid on while steaming food unless the recipe or chart specifically
states to remove the lid. By removing the lid, steam is lost unnecessarily and the
cooking time will be extended.
•
Do not let the cooking bowl boil dry during steaming.
