Retain moisture, nutrients, and natural flavours T he steam oven is such a versatile cooking appliance able to create so many dishes, limited only by the imagination! Whether the choice is a built-in pure steam oven, a built-in steam combination oven or a benchtop pure steam model, each offers a multitude of applications to support the creativity of the home cook. The versatility and creativity of steam cooking delivers the most flavoursome and healthy cooking results. The results are exceptional as steaming intensifies the food’s natural flavours while retaining its nutritional goodness. This is achieved as these ovens gently envelope the food items in steam, operating without pressure, in a precisely controlled temperature range of 40–100°C made possible by the external steam generation principle. Bread, a delicate fish dish or robust meat dish, vegetables, soups, casseroles, rice and wonderful desserts, whatever the dish, the outcome is sensationally delicious! Furthermore, for busy households, defrosting has never been easier or gentler while reheating retains flavour and texture without drying out the food. Steam ovens can also assist to make yoghurt, cook eggs and disinfect baby bottles. For added convenience, a Keep Warm function prevents food from cooling down by automatically keeping it at serving temperature for 15 minutes after the cooking process is completed.
