Cooking dishes

During cooking, you can use the accessories included with the steam oven.

- Place the food to be cooked in the drainer.

- Use the dripping pan to catch the cooking juices.
These can be used (for example) to make sauces.

Careful! At the end of cooking time the food and steam cooking dishes will be hot!
It is possible to use ceramic, porcelain or heat resistant plastic crockery. Be sure

to observe the manufacturer's recommendations.
For example, asparagus can be cooked on a plate placed in the steam oven and

then seasoned. Do not use the drainer for rice, terrines or pasta dishes. For these

dishes use a non-perforated recipient.

Never use paper or cardboard plates or dishes as these will not withstand humidity.
