Important Points
• Before

using first time, wash steamer

(see below)
may be evident
during initial use. This is normal with
many heating appliances and will not
recur. It does not effect safety of unit.

• Slight odor or smoke

• Polished

or waxed surfaces:

Avoid

placing unit on any surface or under any
wall cabinet that can be marred by steam
or water droplets.
• Use clean water only in inner water

reservoir and heating well. Do not use
wine, broth or other liquids. Do not add
salt, pepper or other seasonings to water.

The appliance and accumulated
steam will be hot. Using hot pad, lift cover
carefully to allo'jVsteam to escape safely.
Hold cover over unit to let moisture drop into
steamer. Use hot pads to lift basket or bowl.

• Caution:

• Brush or wipe heating well with white

• A bit of water may remain in the inner

boils dry. This is normal.

Hints
• Cooking times are estimates and are
affected by size and temperature of food,
desired degree of doneness, and the temperature of water used for steaming.
Water amounts may be adjusted.
• If steamer has shut off and food is not to
desired doneness, add cold water to inner
water reservoir, replace food and cover.
Unit will turn back on shortly and resume
stearning. Note: Steaming times may be
slightly different when cold water is added
to a hot unit. The ternperature of the
water and degree of food doneness will
affect steaming time.
• Accumulated steam allows foods to continue cooking slightly even after unit has

• Altitude affects the temperature at which
water boils and thus the cooking time. It's
especially true at high altitudes where
longer cooking times are necessary.
• Rice bowl may be used to store food in
refrigerator. Do not use rice bowl or basket
in oven, microwave oven or on range top.
• Smaller foods steam faster than larger
ones; a single layer cooks faster than several layers. Foods of uniform size will
cook more evenly; arrange in center of
basket. Try not to block steam vents.

Unplug. Never immerse heating base in water.

As some foods may stain, we recommend
cleaning the rice bowl and steamer basket
with vegetable oil. Coat the bowl and basket with vegetable oil and wipe clean Then
wash the bowl, basket and cover in hot,
soapy water, rinse and dry. Or wash on
top rack of dishwasher. Prolonged dish;~

deposits from collecting. If mineral
deposits are allowed to accumulate, a "tea
kettle whistle" will result and, in extreme
cases, unit could turn off before food is
cooked.
• If a heavy mineral deposit has collected,
pour 2 tablespoons of liquid Dip-It 2® into
the heating well. Allow to stand about 15
minutes. Brush and rinse thoroughly.
.' Wash both reservoirs with soapy water,
rinse and dry. A small brush is handy
when washing base.

Reminder
The Rival Steamer is automatic. Timing
begins when the unit is plugged in.
When adapting recipes, timing should not
be compared to other methods of steaming where timing begins after the water
has come to a boil.

• Times are based on adding cold water to a cold unit. If
water is added to a hot unit, times will be slightly different.

To steam longer, carefully lift steamer

Vegetables
Hints
o

Use steamer basket for fresh or frozen
vegetables.

o

Season the vegetables after steaming.

o

If preparing more vegetables (fresh or
frozen) than quantity listed, increase
water amount by 1/4 cup to extend cooking time.

Exception: If a sauce or liquid is to be
kept on the vegetables, use rice bowl.
See examples on page 20.
o

o

o

Thoroughly clean the vegetables. Cut off
stem; peel if desired. Cut or chop.
Smaller pieces steam faster than larger
ones.
Vegetables retain more flavor and nutrients if steamed just until tender, but still
slightly firm.

Frozen Vegetables
o

Frozen vegetables should not be thawed
before steaming.

o

Temperature of frozen food will affect
cooking time. Adjust water volume and
cooking time as desired.

Quality, freshness and size may affect
timing. Adjust water volumes and
cooking times as desired.

Rice, Grains and Cereals
• To vary the flavor of the rice, use other

the same amount of liquid as water indicated in chart. Suggestions include
broth, consomme or wine. Remember:
Use only clean water in the inner water
reservoir.

Rice
Step 1: Put both rice and water in rice
bowl.
Step 2: Pour specified amount of water in
inner water reservoir (see chart).
Step 3: Cover and steam.

• Add chopped onions, minced parsley,
almonds or sliced mushrooms to rice in
rice bowl. It flavors as it cooks.

• There are many types of rice. Follow
specific directions for the variety used.

Grains and Cereals

• For firmer rice, slightly decrease water in
both rice bowl and inner water reservoir;
for softer rice, slightly increase water in
both areas.

• To prepare other grains such as wheat or
oatmeal, pour water into rice bowl. Cover
and steam to heat water. Add grain to
hot water and steam again. Follow water
volumes and steaming times indicated in
chart.

Guide to Recipes
The recipes in this book are just a
sampling of the wide variety of
foods that you can prepare.
When preparing the recipe, be
sure to use the steamer basket or
rice bowl as directed. The water
required in the inner water reservoir and approximate cooking time
is listed under each recipe.
Multi-step recipes indicate two or
more volumes of water and two or
more steaming times. This method
allows for the stirring of food, addition of ingredients, or when required
total steaming time exceeds maximum capacity of the steamer.
For multi-step recipes, steam the
first time using initial amount of
water indicated. When cooking
ends, follow other directions, if any
(the addition ofingredients, stirring,
etc.). A second amount of water is
then added to the inner water reservoir, and steaming resumes. '
