Adding Water To The Reservoir Mid-Cycle; Steaming Eggs; Rice And Grain Bowl - Bella 9.5QT Manual De Instrucciones

Adding Water to the Reservoir Mid-Cycle

The water reservoir can be safely re-filled while the machine is operating. Slide out the inlet drawer and
add the desired amount of water to prolong your cycle by pouring water in the drip tray handles which
also serve as water inlet.
Caution: Do not remove the steaming bowls or drip tray during the cooking cycle. The steam that will be
emitted is scalding hot.

Steaming Eggs

All the 3 steaming bowls can be used for cooking eggs. There are indents that are designed to fit 6 eggs
on each layer (figure 4).

RICE & GRAIN BOWL
When cooking in the rice bowl, add rice, seasonings and water directly into the bowl and fill the reservoir
to the appropriate line.
IMPORTANT: Rice industry standards for one cup of rice (180mL) are not equal to one standard U.S.
cup measure (240 mL). For best results with the suggested cooking time, measure according to the rice
industry guidelines.
1. Your steamer includes a rice bowl with a 5 cup (cooked) capacity.
2. Accurately measure rice, water and seasonings directly into the bowl and fill the reservoir to the
appropriate line.
3. At the minimum suggested time in the steaming guide, stir the rice and check the consistency.
Be careful not to drip the condensation into the rice bowl

liquids (figure 5).
