Steaming Guide
Helpful Hints
• Times indicated are based upon use of fresh fruits, meats and seafood (frozen foods not recommended). Steaming times will vary according to size,
temperature and freshness of foods.
• Suggested times are simply a guide. The lowest time will provide a “crisp-tender” vegetable, whereas the highest time will produce a softer texture.
• The turbo-convection feature of the Cuisinart
®
TCS-60 eliminates the need to stir vegetables halfway through cooking time, which is necessary with
other steamers.
• Use tongs to remove food from the steamer.
• Beans cooked in the Cuisinart steamer cook evenly and do not break up as readily as those cooked on the stovetop.
