mended steam times not be exceeded without first checking the food. If food appears to
require additional steaming, remove from the steamer, inspect, and if additional time is
required, return to the steamer and resume steaming. Do not add additional time without
first opening the door and inspecting food. Factors that will affect the steam time of a
particular food item are: starting temperature, portion size, food shape, container used
and food volume.
