ASSEMBLY

ADDING FOOD AND FLAVOURINGS.

The drip tray has an integral flavour screen. You may add condiments
such as chopped herbs, garlic, whole or powdered spices into the
screen. During cooking the steam will rise through the screen and
gently add subtle flavours to your food.

FILLING THE BOWLS

Fill one or two bowls with the food you wish to steam. Do not overfill the bowls or some food will only be partially
cooked.

Place the bowls in the order shown in the drawing. Use one or more bowls as needed. If you are using several bowls,
note that the Bowl marked 1 on the handles should always be at the bottom.

If you are using the rice bowl, place it in one of the steamer bowls for support and make sure it is at the top of the
stack.

Cover the uppermost bowl with the lid.
