Practical work with the VAROMA
This description explains clearly how easy it is to
use the VAROMA. Observe the following basic rules
for using the VAROMA:
• Place enough water in the mixing bowl.
• The bottom of the VAROMA receptacle and tray
are both designed with an even pattern of small
slots to guarantee an even distribution of steam
in the VAROMA. The food should always be
positioned so that as many slots as possible
remain “free”. Laying the food in “loosely” is
usually enough to ensure this.
• You can cook foods of different consistency and
hardness at the same time. Place food requiring
longer cooking at the bottom and food requiring
less cooking at the top, e.g. vegetables in the
VAROMA receptacle and fish on the VAROMA
tray.
• The vegetables will be evenly cooked if you cut
them into similar-sized pieces. The cooking times
stated are approximate cooking time varies
depending on quality, ripeness and size of the
ingredients as well as your personal preferences.
• Grease the VAROMA receptacle and tray to make
sure that ingredients such as meat, fish or dough
do not stick.
• Do not thicken your sauces and soups until the
steam cooking process is finished. Thickeners
may stop steam from forming evenly in the
mixing bowl and slow down the overall cooking
process.
• You can also turn the VAROMA lid upside down
and use it as a water collector for the Varoma
receptacle and the Varoma tray . It can also
be used as a tray to serve food directly from the
VAROMA.
