Steam cooking presents nothing but advantages if you follow the instructions for use. Healthy and natural, steam cooking preserves the full flavour of foods. A delicate sauce or aromatic herb seasonings add that something extra that makes the difference.

This kind of cooking releases no odours. There is no need to season the cooking water with herbs or spices; however, you can flavour a fish by placing it on a bed of seaweed or make a savoury poultry dish by adding a bunch of rosemary or tarragon.

You can simultaneously cook meat, fish and vegetables.

Steam cooking gently reheats pasta, rice and mashed potatoes with no risk of food sticking or drying out.

It makes it easier to cook puddings, flans, rice pudding, etc. covered with aluminium foil, the condensation water does not add moisture to the preparations.

There is no need to season before cooking--not even the steam water.

To make meat look more appetising, quickly brown it on all sides with hot butter in a pan.

Compared to boiling, steam offers nothing but advantages:

It is quick: cooking starts immediately, whereas for food in a water-filled dish, the cooking time only begins counting down once the water returns to a full boil.

It is healthy: vitamins (those that are water soluble) and minerals are well preserved because they scarcely dissolve in the condensation water that touches the food.

Moreover, no fats are used for this type of cooking.

The steam maintains the taste of food. It does not add odours, nor the taste of the grill or the pan. Furthermore, it takes nothing away because the food is not diluted in the water.

Words of advice: there is no point in using this cooking method to prepare fish that is not fresh or vegetables left in the refrigerator for a week--the results are catastrophic!

The steam does not transfer flavours or aromas; therefore do not hesitate to save both time and money by cooking items side by side, but without touching. For example, you can cook a fish next to a dessert.

Steam is also appropriate for blanching, defrosting and reheating or even holding warm, especially sauces.

First use a very small amount of fat to heat meats like poultry, veal and pork so that they take on an appetizing browned appearance. Then finish cooking them using the steam method.

Cut into pieces, food cooks faster and more evenly than if left whole.

removable tank

Line drawing of a rectangular mechanical component with a curved side and internal grooves (no text or symbols)

The water tank allows for independent water supply to the oven. Its capacity is approximately one litre (maximum level).

Tap water can sometimes be too hard. Lightly mineralised, still, bottled water will be more effective in cleaning your oven.

Using demineralised water is prohibited (not for human consumption).

For permanent installation, be mindful to add a standardised, compliant cut-off device in the electrical conduit. Otherwise the appliance must be positioned so that the electrical outlet is accessible after the unit has been built-in.

You must use an electrical receptacle that contains a ground wire and is connected in compliance with applicable safety standards.

Your electrical installation must be equipped with 10 ampere thermal-sensitive protection.

Do not operate the oven if the power cable or its plug are damaged. In this case, they must be replaced by the manufacturer, its After Sales Service department or a person of similar qualifications so as to avoid any danger.
