• the temperature of the water (the times
quoted assume cold water. Cooking
time is slightly reduced with hot water);
• personal preference (food with bite or
soft).
Notes
• Stir or rearrange the cooking food
occasionally with a long cooking spoon.
• Ensure that all the pieces are about the
same size. Arrange smaller pieces on
top.
• Do not over-fill the steamer baskets by
packing food in too tightly or covering
all the holes. It must be possible for
steam to pass everywhere between the
pieces and through the holes in the
bases of the steamer baskets.
8.1 Cooking times - vegetables
• Prepare the vegetables by cutting off
thick stalks and cutting large vegetables
into similar-sized pieces.
• Leafy vegetables should be cooked for
as short a time as possible so that they
retain their colour.
• Do not season vegetables until they are
cooked.
• Frozen vegetables can be cooked like
fresh ones. For many vegetables,
cooking time is extended by a few
minutes when they are frozen.
