DESCRIPTION - 31914779401/A

Deep tray

Useful for collecting fat from foods placed on
the rack above and for cooking pies, pizzas,
baked desserts, biscuits, etc.

Rack

Used for supporting containers with food during
cooking.

Evaporation tray and lid

Other cooking containers

• You may also use your own containers for
cooking, as long as they are resistant to high
temperatures.

• For steam cooking, the use of metal
containers is recommended. Metal
facilitates better distribution of heat to the
foods.

• It is normal for metal containers to deform
somewhat during high-temperature cooking,
but they will return to their original shape
when they cool down.

• Thick ceramic plates may require more heat
than normal. Longer cooking times may be
necessary.

Advantages of steam cooking

The steam cooking system cooks any type of
food much more delicately.
It is also ideal for defrosting foods rapidly, for
heating up foods without hardening or drying
them out, and for naturally removing salt from
foodstuffs preserved with salt.

The maximum capacity of the
evaporation tray is 250 ml.

Distributes the steam inside the oven cavity.
