FROZEN VEGETABLES
Times given are for the contents of one or two boxes or bag of the size specified for
the frozen vegetable. Foods listed are not packaged in butter or a sauce; most are
placed directly into the Steaming Bowl. Do not thaw before steaming.
Frozen vegetables may be very icy; some are a solid block when removed from the
package. When possible, break-up/separate frozen pieces before adding them to
Steaming Bowl. These foods should be separated/stirred after 10 - 12 mins., or at
the time suggested in the Steaming Guide.
Use a long handled fork or spoon to separate or stir foods.
Mashed, frozen vegetables, like winter squash, are placed in the Rice Bowl, then
the Steaming Bowl and should be covered with a piece of aluminum foil during
steaming. See instructions for using a foil cover.
Season vegetables after steaming.
