There are three elements in a lemon meringue pie: the crust, the lemon curd filling, and the fluffy meringue. To ensure each one bakes perfectly, use the same tools as a professional baker and choose the Convection Bake mode in your oven.  YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Lemon Meringue Pie Convection Bake Mode Lemon Meringue Pie Professional bakers use convection ovens because the circulating heated air cooks food evenly, ensuring outstanding results. Because convection cooks from the edge to the center, this recipe reduces the baking temperature by 25 degrees. There are three elements in a lemon meringue pie: the crust, the lemon curd filling, and the fluffy meringue. To ensure each one bakes perfectly, use the same tools as a professional baker and choose the Convection Bake mode in your oven. Be sure to let the eggs come to room temperature and separate them carefully. Ensuring the whites have no traces of yolk makes all the difference in achieving those perfect peaks. Using superfine or Bakers sugar is also recommended when making meringue. Recipe ingredients For the Crust 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1/8 tsp salt 4 oz cold, unsalted butter cut into small cubes 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1/4 cup ice-cold water Combine the flour, salt, butter, and sugar in a food processor bowl and pulse to combine. With the motor running slowly, add the water and mix until a ball forms. Scrape the mixture onto a lightly dusted rolling mat and press into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. When ready to continue, let the pastry sit outside the refrigerator for 20 minutes to soften slightly. Roll the pastry to a 12" circle on a lightly flour-dusted pastry mat and place it in a 9" pie pan. Trim the overhang, crimp the edges, and place the prepared pan in the freezer. Meanwhile, arrange the oven racks so you can bake on the lowest rack (for gas ovens, I recommend rack position two) and the upper racks, leaving plenty of room for baking with the meringue topping. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake mode to 350 F. Line the prepared pan with parchment and pastry baking weights and bake for 20 minutes until the crust is lightly golden. Set aside to cool before removing the pastry weights. Reduce the oven temperature to 325 F and move on to making the filling. For the Filling 1 1/3 cups water 1 cup granulated sugar 1/3 cup cornstarch 1/4 tsp salt 1 tbsp lemon zest 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice 5 large egg yolks, beaten 2 tbsp unsalted butter Combine all the ingredients except the egg yolks and butter in a heavy saucepan over medium heat and cook until the mixture thickens and bubbles. When the mixture has thickened, reduce the heat to low. Whisk the egg yolks and very slowly add a few spoons of the liquid from the pan to the eggs, then very slowly whisk this mixture into the pan. Increase the heat to medium and cook the mixture for another 4 - 5 minutes until it is very thick and large bubbles burst to the surface. Remove from the heat, whisk in the butter, and spread the filling into the prepared pie shell. For the Meringue 5 large egg whites 1/2 tsp cream of tartar 1/2 cup superfine or Bakers sugar 1/8 tsp salt In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed for a minute. Increase to high speed and whisk for approximately 4 minutes until soft peaks form. Add the sugar and salt and continue beating for another 2 minutes until the egg whites are stiff and glossy. Spread the meringue over the filling to the edge of the crust so the filling is completely covered, and swirl the meringue into a decorative pattern with the back of a spoon. Slide the pie into the oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until the meringue is lightly browned. Cool the pie on a cooling rack for at least an hour before serving, or chill it once cooled for 2 - 4 hours before serving. This pie is best served the day it is baked; however, my "extra" slices were still very good after two days in the refrigerator.

Your Combi Steam Oven is ideal for steaming multiple foods at one time. For this Italian seafood salad you have to prep the veggies, steam the seafood, and toss with a nice lemony olive oil dressing Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Italian Seafood Salad with Calamari, Scallops and Shrimp Steaming Italian seafood salad freshly prepared in a steam oven, featuring shrimp, calamari, lemon slices, and fresh herbs, offering a vibrant and aromatic culinary experience. Actually this easy to make salad is delicious year round, but what I really want you to grasp is that your Combi Steam Oven is ideal for steaming multiple foods at one time and makes prep for salads so much easier. All you have to do is prep the vegetables, steam the seafood, chill them altogether and toss with a nice lemony olive oil dressing….and of course some red chili flakes. INGREDIENTS 1 - 1lb bag assorted seafood medley, calamari, shrimp & bay scallops (TJ’s or Costco) 2 - small lobster tails, optional, removed from the shell and cut into ¼” thick slices ½ - fennel bulb, thinly sliced ½ - red onion, thinly sliced ¼ - cup Italian parsley, finely chopped 3 - cloves garlic, pressed or minced Potato Artichoke Salad 2lbs - small golden potatoes, cut into quarters or rounds ¼ - red onion, finely chopped ½ - cup artichoke hearts, drained and quartered 1 - cup small tomatoes, halved 2 - handfuls arugula or other greens PREPARATION Heat the Combi Steam Oven in the Steam Mode 212 degrees + High Humidity. Place the seafood in the solid pan with ½ a cup of water, a splash of white wine and some lemon slices. Steam for 4 minutes then remove from the oven. Transfer the cooked seafood to a stainless steel bowl and set over ice to stop it cooking and quickly cool it down. Combine with the chopped vegetables and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Before serving, toss with some fruity olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice and a dash of red chili flakes and freshly ground pepper. Potato Artichoke Salad I always say once you have tasted a potato steamed in the steam oven you will never boil a potato again. There are so many great potato varieties available now and cooking them in steam really brings out the flavor. Remember never to add mayonnaise to hot potatoes, they must cool first, to hasten the cooling process you can spread them onto a rimmed baking sheet. Steaming The Potatoes Heat the oven in the Steam Mode, place the potatoes in the perforated pan and slide into the oven. Set the timer for 20 minutes and check for doneness, before removing. Set aside to cool them. Combine with the onion, artichoke hearts and tomato. Gently toss with the vinaigrette of your choice then fold in the greens. Season with salt and pepper before serving.

The Steam oven is the ideal tool for steaming small pasta like orzo that can be combined with grilled artichokes. Not only will you avoid boil-overs, the cooking containers can be easily rinsed clean. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Orzo Pasta Salad with Grilled Artichokes Steaming Orzo pasta salad with cherry tomatoes and vegetables, showcasing flavors the versatility of the steam oven. The steam oven is the ideal tool for cooking small grains and pasta. Not only will you avoid boil-overs, the cooking containers can be easily rinsed clean or washed in the dishwasher and, you can set the timer and attend to prepping other ingredients for the salad. Rather than heat up a big pan of water to cook small pasta such as orzo you can just cover the pasta with water, add salt and cook it in the Combi steam oven. If your oven doesn’t have a small-sized pan the orzo can be cooked in a Pyrex or other ovenproof casserole dish. The grilled artichoke hearts can be found in the salad section at Whole Foods. INGREDIENTS 1 cup orzo pasta 1 cup of water or enough to cover the pasta 1 8 oz package grilled artichoke hearts, coarsely chopped ¼ cup finely chopped red onion ¼ cup minced Italian parsley leaves 2 cups mini heirloom tomatoes, quartered ¼ cup pine nuts, lightly toasted Dressing ¼ cup olive oil 1 ½ tbsp golden balsamic or sherry vinegar 2 cloves garlic, minced PREPARATION Heat the Steam oven in the Steam mode, 212 degrees. Place the pasta in a small solid oven-proof casserole and add enough water to cover and a pinch of kosher salt. Place in the oven and cook for 12 - 15 minutes until tender. Drain if necessary, fluff with a fork, and combine with the remaining ingredients in a large shallow bowl. Combine the oil, vinegar, and garlic in a glass measuring cup. Add a pinch of sea salt and some freshly ground pepper. Add to the salad while the pasta is still warm so it absorbs the flavor.

Once you set the oven in the steam mode you can add in multiple containers of food at one time, all you have to do is determine the timing for each type of food and the order in which you want to cook those foods. How to Cook Different Foods In The Steam Oven Cooking food in steam is not a new concept neither is cooking multiple foods in steam at one time; however, the advantages of cooking with the technology in the steam oven definitely makes food preparation easier. Once you set the oven in the steam mode you can add in multiple containers of food at one time, all you have to do is determine the timing for each type of food and the order in which you want to cook those foods. Planning is Key When Cooking Multiple Foods at one Time Cooking Multiple Dishes In A Steam Oven. It’s easier than ever these days to keep track of the timing when cooking multiple dishes at one time. In addition to the oven timers we have devices such as Alexa, our phones, digital timers and the old fashioned wind up timers. If your oven is connected to the manufacturer's app you will also get an alert when the timing has elapsed. In other words, planning the timing for cooking multiple dishes is easy. Prepare Meals in Advance at the same Time as Cooking Dinner Steaming multiple foods at one time can be helpful when preparing a meal, but also when you are preparing several meals in advance. Say for example you wanted to make mashed potatoes as a topping for Shepherds Pie that you plan to serve on another day, and also steam some bone in chicken for sandwiches as well as steam some rice and vegetables for dinner, well all those foods can be cooked in the Steam mode at the same time. It might sound ambitious, but really it’s amazingly easy. Here is the timing for this scenario: Steamed (2) bone-in chicken legs, prep time, 5 minutes, cooking time 40 minutes. Yield approximately 3 cups cooked chicken + 2 cups chicken stock. Cook in a solid pan with 1 cup of water and the desired aromatics. Set the chicken aside to cool before shredding. Steaming Chicken for Salad. Potatoes (4 large) for mashed potatoes, prep time, 5 minutes, cooking time 20 minutes. Yield 4 - 6 servings. Cook in the solid pan, add ½ cup of water and salt. Remove when potatoes are very tender and mash with butter etc. Rice (1 cup) cooking time 15 - 30 minutes depending on the type of rice. Yield 2 - 3 servings. Cook in the solid pan with 1 ¾ cups of water and salt. Allow to stand for 5 minutes then fluff with a fork. Steamed vegetables, green beans, broccoli, asparagus, thinly sliced carrots: 6 - 8 minutes depending on your preference. In this scenario the base for the Shepherd's Pie could be prepared while the potatoes are steaming, once the mashed potatoes are spread over the filling you would have a dish ready for another meal. Once cooled, the chicken can be shredded and stored ready to add to sandwiches or salads and you will have some simple side dishes ready to serve with dinner. Planning to cook this way is a very efficient way of keeping your refrigerator stocked with healthy nourishing food, so there is always something good to eat. Remember that Shepherds Pie you made in advance well that will heat beautifully in the Steam oven without needing to be covered because, it won't dry out when baked in the combination Convection/Steam mode. With No Cooktop to Clean, Clean-Up is Easy Since all the steam oven cooking containers can be washed in the dishwasher, clean-up is much easier and you have managed to cook a lot of food with little stress. Don't Go Without Breakfast, Cook it in the Steam Oven Using the steam oven to cook multiple foods at breakfast time also makes it easier to ensure everyone gets a healthy breakfast. Oatmeal can be cooked directly in the bowl water in the Steam mode. The timing is approximately 6 minutes, but if the bowl stays in the oven for 10 minutes nothing bad will happen. Eggs can also be poached in the oven at the same time, for large cold eggs between 5-6 minutes works best. Although at higher altitudes it can take up to 8 minutes. Poached Eggs In A Steam Oven. Keep the Steam Oven Clean and Dry For ovens with a tank it is recommended to empty the tank after each use, however, if you use the oven to cook breakfast and plan to use it again that evening the tank can be emptied after the last meal of the day is cooked. Just be sure to dry the oven out to maintain a hygienic environment. Think Beyond Cooking One Item at a Time and Let the Oven Work for You Steam ovens are truly remarkable tools, and I encourage you to think beyond just using the oven to prepare one food at a time. Always ask yourself, is there something else I can cook at the same time to get a head start on another meal or to make it easier to prepare several dishes at one time. With a little planning you will get great results every time when cooking with your steam oven. Larissa Your Convection (and Steam) Enthusiast BACK TO LEARN PAGE RESCUED BY MY CONVECTION OVEN!

A Heritage turkey allows you to experience the great flavor of a bird raised in a completely natural environment. Rich in flavor the bird is enhanced by being roasted in Convection and no brine is needed. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Convection Roast Heritage Turkey Convection Bake or Convection Roast Mode Golden brown roasted heritage turkey garnished with herbs, resting on a baking tray, ready for a festive feast. The deep rich flavor of the a completely natural Heritage turkey is enhanced by being roasted in Convection and no brine is needed to prevent moisture loss. Turkey roasted in Convection has better flavor and more moisture retention. Best of all the cooking time is under two hours When I researched how to cook a Heritage turkey I was surprised that a high cooking temperature was recommended. Some high heat is definitely advantageous for crisping and browning, but because Convection cooks food from the edge to the center keeping the temperature high for the entire cooking time can result in overcooked edges and an underdone center. I used a combination of high heat and mostly moderate heat with great results. INGREDIENTS 1 heritage turkey, fully defrosted, neck and any other giblets removed 1 Granny Smith apple, chopped into 1” chunks 1 medium yellow onion, chopped into 1” dice 3 cloves garlic, smashed 2 sprigs of fresh thyme 2 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp kosher salt 1 stick unsalted butter, softened ½ tsp herbs de Provence 2 cups chicken or turkey stock PREPARATION Making sure the turkey is completely defrosted prior to cooking is very important. I allowed 3 days in the refrigerator to defrost my 13lb turkey and still had to put it in the oven using the defrost mode to dissolve the ice crystals and bring it to room temperature. Letting the turkey sit in the refrigerator overnight uncovered to let the skin dry is also suggested to achieve a crisp skin. I draped a sheet of wax paper over the bird to avoid contact with anything else in the refrigerator. I used a light stuffing of apples, onion, garlic, and thyme for added flavor but for food safety, bread or grain stuffing should be baked separately. Plan to cook the turkey to an internal temperature between 150 - 160 degrees and then let it rest for 20 minutes before carving. I cooked my turkey to 150 degrees and found parts near the bone still had a rosy tinge, but the meat was cooked through. Once the turkey was in the oven I added 2 cups of chicken stock to the pan. After deglazing the pan I was able to capture enough juice to create a flavorful gravy. Cooking time for a 13 - 15lb turkey following the recipe guidelines will be 1 hour 40 - 50 minutes depending on how cold the turkey is when it goes into the oven. To Cook The Turkey Blot the turkey dry inside and out with paper towels. Combine the apple, onion, and garlic with olive oil and fresh thyme and place in the cavity. Tie the legs together with twine leaving some space between the legs and the body of the bird, I usually use a skewer but these legs are so heavy twine works best to keep them in place. Season the turkey all over with Kosher salt. Combine the softened butter with the herbs and if possible carefully separate the skin from the flesh and rub the butter under the skin. I found the skin didn’t come away very easily so I ended up spreading most of the butter over the skin. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake or Convection Roast Mode at 400F (205C). Place the turkey on a rack in a shallow pan (this is important as it allows the heated air to penetrate evenly into the bird) and insert the meat probe into the thickest part of the thigh, taking care that it doesn’t touch any bone. Place the bird in the oven on the second rack up from the bottom and carefully pour the stock into the pan. Close the door, touch the probe symbol and program the internal temperature to reach 150F(65C) then set the timer for 15 minutes. When the timer has elapsed, reduce the oven temperature to 325F (163C) for the remainder of the cooking time. If your oven doesn’t have a meat probe check the internal temperature after 1 hour and 40 minutes of cooking time. Pierce the thigh to make sure the juices run clear before resting and carving. For the Gravy Place the turkey neck in a saucepan, cover with water and combine with a whole onion, a carrot, a bay leaf and a few sprigs of fresh parsley. Bring to a boil, immediately lower the heat and simmer partially covered for 40 minutes. Discard the solids and set the stock aside to make gravy. Place the turkey on a rimmed baking pan loosely covered with foil to rest. Place the cooking pan (the one you cook the turkey) over two burners set to moderate heat. For Induction cooktops, scrape everything into a saucepan making sure to include all the little browned bits. Add a ½ cup of red wine to the pan and stir carefully to deglaze. Pour the liquid into a glass measuring cup and when it settles skim off the fat and use the remaining liquid to add to the stock for gravy. Place 2 tbsp unsalted butter in a medium sized saucepan over moderate heat. When the butter melts add 2 tbsp of flour, stir to combine and cook over gentle heat for 3 to 4 minutes. Increase the heat and stir in the stock and pan juices, continue to stir until the mixture thickens slightly and there are no lumps. Taste and add sea salt and freshly cracked pepper.

Steam oven potato frittata with kale and linguica. This method not only simplifies the preparation process but also enhances the flavor of the potatoes, which retain their natural taste when steamed. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Potato Frittata with Linguica and Kale Convection Steam Bake Sliced steam oven potato frittata with kale and linguica, freshly baked in a cast iron pan, ready to be served. Not only do foods cooked in a steam oven have wonderful flavor and texture, but using the features in your steam oven can simplify food preparation. Frittatas are not only a perfect choice for a light, nourishing meal, but they also offer a delightful taste when served warm or at room temperature. In this recipe, we leverage the convenience of a steam oven in the Steam mode to par-cook the potatoes and blanch the kale. This method not only simplifies the preparation process but also enhances the flavor of the potatoes, which retain their natural taste when steamed. Moreover, blanching vegetables in steam is a breeze compared to the hassle of dealing with pans of boiling water. The Portuguese Linguica sausage, seasoned with smoked paprika, adds a unique flavor that pairs exceptionally well with the potatoes and kale. However, feel free to use any sausage of your preference. INGREDIENTS 3 medium-sized yellow potatoes, diced into 1/2" cubes 2 cups kale, coarse stems removed, sliced into thin ribbons 2 tbsp olive oil 1 shallot, sliced 3 cloves garlic, sliced 1/4 tsp dried oregano 1/2 Linguica sausage (mild or hot) cut in half lengthwise and chopped into thin slices 10 eggs, beaten 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese PREPARATION Heat the oven in the Steam mode to 212 F. Place the prepped potatoes in the perforated pan and steam for 15 minutes until just tender. Set the potatoes aside to cool, add the kale to the perforated pan, and blanch for 1 minute. Remove the kale from the oven and rinse under cold water. Squeeze the moisture from the kale and pat it dry. Change the oven mode to the Combination Convection Steam Mode 325 F. If your oven has variable humidity options, choose 30%. Next, it's time to prepare the filling. Heat a medium-sized oven-proof skillet over moderate heat. Add the oil, shallots, and garlic, and cook gently for a minute or two until softened. Then, add the potatoes and oregano, stirring well to coat them with the oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook the potatoes for a few minutes, then stir in the linguica and kale. Be careful not to let the shallots or garlic burn. Cook for three to four minutes, ensuring the flavors are well combined. Once the pan is removed from the heat, the beaten eggs are added, and the frittata is topped with the shredded cheese. This mixture is then placed in the oven to bake for 25 - 30 minutes until it sets into a mouthwatering frittata. The anticipation of the delicious outcome is sure to make your taste buds tingle. Serves 4 If you prefer not to bake the frittata in a skillet, don't worry. The recipe offers flexibility, allowing you to bake it in an oven-safe casserole or pie dish. This adaptability ensures that you can enjoy the frittata in a way that suits your cooking style and equipment. Potato Frittata with Kale and Linguica .pdf Download PDF • 60KB WANT TO LEARN MORE?

When cold food is reheated in a steam oven it literally brings food back to life as the steam gently penetrates into the food warming it evenly throughout.   Steam Oven Cooking Guide for Beginners, Part 2 Steam ovens feature an array of great cooking function; however, one of the best features of a steam oven is the ability to reheat food with outstanding results. When cold food is reheated in a steam oven it literally brings food back to life as the steam gently penetrates into the food warming it evenly throughout. Roasted vegetables and perfectly cooked bread highlight the versatility of the combi-steam oven. Tips for Reheating Food in the Steam Oven Most steam ovens have a Reheat function with a default temperature setting that the manufacturer has determined will provide the best results. Since the goal is to heat the food evenly it is best to use the preset temperature for most foods, although there are some exceptions. Generally heating cold food takes approximately 10 minutes, but the time will depend on how dense the food is and the quantity being reheated. A large slice of lasagna for example might take 15 minutes whereas a dish with some grains and roasted vegetables may only take 8-10 minutes. Food can be reheated in the oven cooking containers, on a plate or in a bowl or casserole dish: When cooked meats such as beef or lamb are reheated the meat will take on a slightly greyish tone however, once you cut into the meat you will see it remains perfectly pink on the interior and will taste freshly cooked. Pizza and baked items are best reheated at a higher temperature. Heat the oven to 350 and once hot place the pizza or baked item in the oven for 3 - 5 minutes depending on the density of the item. The steam oven can also be used to warm dishes so that food stays warm when served and also to hold prepared food prior to serving. Steam Oven Maintenance Steam is a remarkable tool for cooking, but I can’t stress enough how important it is to take care of your oven and keep it free of moisture when it is not in use. Leaving moisture in the tank or not drying the oven out in between use can lead to mold growing on food particles that may not even be visible. If you use your oven in the morning to cook oatmeal, poach eggs or reheat food then it is ok to leave the water in the tank if you plan to use the oven later that day. However it is best to make sure the tank is emptied daily and the oven dried out. To quickly dry the oven you can set it to the Convection mode 350 F for 10 minutes or wipe it dry with a soft cloth. In the next Steam Oven Cooking Guide for Beginners, I will review cooking a complete meal in the steam oven as well as providing tips for cleaning and descaling.

There are several cooking steps in preparing this delicious eggplant casserole from the Catalan region of Spain, but it comes together easily when using the tools of your Convection oven. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Eggplant Casserole with Pepper, Olives and Anchovies Broil and Convection Bake Mode A vibrant eggplant casserole with red and yellow bell peppers and olives, served elegantly. There are several cooking steps in preparing this delicious eggplant casserole from the Catalan region of Spain, but it comes together easily when using the tools of your Convection oven. Begin by slicing the eggplant, sprinkling the slices with salt then setting them aside for an hour or so. Now heat the oven in the Broil mode and broil the peppers, set them aside to cool before removing the skins. Then you can prepare the remaining ingredients and rinse the eggplant slices and bake them. Once the eggplant slices have been baked, then the ingredients are layered into a baking dish and baked for about 20 minutes. INGREDIENTS 2 medium eggplant, cut into ¼” thick slices 4 peppers, red, yellow, and orange, halved and seeded ¾ cup olive oil 3 tbsp pine nuts ¾ cup fresh breadcrumbs made from a rustic or sourdough loaf ¼ tsp dried oregano 2 tbsp chopped Italian parsley 6 anchovies ½ cup pitted black olives PREPARATION Slice the eggplant, arrange on a large rimmed baking sheet, sprinkle with Kosher salt, and set aside for an hour. Heat the oven in the Broil mode, at 475 degrees, the oven will come to temperature quickly in this mode. Cut the peppers in half lengthwise, remove the seeds and stem and flatten the peppers with the heel of your palm. Place the peppers on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet and broil until the skins blacken. Remove the pan from the oven and set aside to cool. Drape a paper towel over the peppers to help sweat off the skins. When the peppers are completely cooled, removed the blackened skin and cut the peppers into thick strips. Meanwhile, heat a medium-sized skillet and add 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add the pine nuts to the pan and cook until gently browned then stir in the breadcrumbs and cook for a few minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, season with salt and pepper, and stir in the oregano and parsley. Heat the oven in the Convection Bake mode at 350 degrees. Rinse the eggplant slices and pat dry with paper towels. Spread the eggplant slices onto a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with some olive oil, bake for 15 - 20 minutes until softened. Now you are ready to assemble the casserole. Lightly oil the casserole dish and begin with a layer of eggplant, top with a layer of peppers, then a layer of the breadcrumb mixture and a scattering of olives. Add the anchovies in a criss-cross pattern over the tops of the casserole and drizzle the remaining olive over the top. Bake for 15 - 20 minutes in the Convection Bake mode at 350 degrees.

Part 3 will cover the basics of cooking multiple dishes simultaneously. An advantage of convection-steam oven: cooking several foods at once. Steam Oven Cooking Made Easy - Part 3 How to get the most out of your steam oven? Plan to cook multiple foods at one time. If you have mastered the basics of steam oven cooking, as outlined in parts 1 and 2 of this series, then it’s time to explore other ways of using your steam oven. Part 3 will cover the basics of cooking multiple dishes simultaneously. Steaming Steaming multiple foods at one time is easy; once the oven is set to the steam mode, you can steam any grain, vegetables, pulses, fish, shellfish, and even eggs, making meal preparation much easier. For example, if you plan a summer BBQ, you can steam potatoes and eggs for potato salad, broccoli and couscous for a salad, orzo pasta and shrimp, or corn on the cob. The possibilities are endless. All you have to do is plan the staging in the oven and the timing for each item. Best of all, while the various foods are steaming, you can focus on preparing the other components for each salad and easily assemble each dish as the food is cooked. Not only can you easily prepare multiple dishes, but there will be no cooktop or saucepans to clean, and the cooking containers can be washed in the dishwasher. It is important to stage the oven before cooking! Roasting Roasting a variety of vegetables together with a quick-cooking protein is perhaps the easiest and healthiest way to prepare a meal. Again, it’s important to think through the staging of each dish in the oven, as well as the timing and the temperature. Roasting is done in the combination Convection/Steam mode, and if your oven has options for the amount of steam, choose 50-60%. If you want to sear meat or poultry first, using a drier heat will give the best results. Heat the oven in the Convection mode to 375 - 425 F and cook the meat for 12 - 15 minutes. Then reduce the oven temperature to 340 and change the mode to the Combination Convection Steam mode for the remainder of the cooking time. BACK TO LEARN PAGE RESCUED BY MY CONVECTION OVEN!

This tart is incredibly easy to make, yet it looks stunning and tastes delicious. While the classic version uses apples, I love highlighting the abundance of summer fruits by using peaches instead. YOUR RECIPE FOR CONVECTION COOKING! Anchor 1 Really Easy and Delicious French Peach Tart Convection Bake Mode Golden peach tart with a flaky crust, perfectly baked and ready to enjoy. This tart is incredibly easy to make, yet it looks stunning and tastes delicious. While the classic version uses apples, I love highlighting the abundance of summer fruits by using peaches instead. Simply layer sliced peaches over a sheet of puff pastry, brush with melted butter and lemon zest, and sprinkle with sugar. That’s all you need to do before baking. After it comes out of the oven, finish the tart with a glossy brush of peach jam reduction—a step that takes less than ten minutes but elevates the whole dessert. Baking the tart in convection-bake mode gives you a crisp, flaky pastry and juicy, perfectly cooked peaches. The circulating hot air ensures even baking and helps the tart stay moist without becoming soggy or dry. INGREDIENTS 1 sheet of Puff Pastry (10.2 x 12.6 inch sheet) 3 peaches (hard ones) ¼ (50 grams) cup of regular sugar 3 tablespoons of butter Lemon zest from one lemon 1 lemon juice 2 tablespoons of peach jam or any jam you have Recipe ingredients. PREPARATION Defrost one sheet of puff pastry, preferably overnight in the refrigerator. It's better to work with the puff pastry while it is cold; once it is defrosted, place it on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a fork to prick the dough at regular intervals across the bottom. Keep the baking sheet with the puff pastry in the refrigerator while you slice the peaches. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) in convection-bake mode. You will need three peaches, thinly sliced. Next, melt the butter at a very low heat and add the lemon zest. Place the baking sheet with the puff pastry with the long edge parallel to the counter. Start lining a row of sliced peaches parallel to the counter, but leave a half-inch border. You will need to leave a border on all sides. Continue to line up rows of peaches until you have covered the entire pastry sheet. Lining up the peaches on the pastry. Brush the peaches with the melted butter and sprinkle the sugar over them. Bake for about 30 minutes, although check the tart at about 25 minutes. Don’t forget that ovens differ from one another, so yours might not cook like mine. While the tart is baking, place the two tablespoons of jam in a small saucepan. Add the juice from one lemon and a couple of tablespoons of water. Place on the stove at a medium heat and whisk to dissolve the jam. Lower the heat and cook until the mixture has thickened. This will take only a few minutes. Bon appétit! It serves 12 portions.

Quick cooking grains such as couscous and bulgur can be cooked in the steam oven using the Steam-mode. Vegetables such as broccoli can be steamed at the same time. Anchor 1 YOUR RECIPE FOR STEAM COOKING Steamed Couscous Broccoli Salad with Almonds Steaming A vibrant broccoli couscous salad with steamed veggies, nuts, and dried cranberries, ideal for a healthy, flavorful meal. Learning how to make your Steam oven work for you makes food preparation much more effortless and certainly less stressful when cooking multiple foods simultaneously. In this video, I demonstrate how to prepare an Orzo pasta salad at the same time as Broccoli, and couscous for a delicious salad. Quick cooking grains such as couscous and bulgur can be cooked by pouring boiling water over them, covering the pan, and leaving the grain to absorb the water or you can cook them in the steam oven using the Steam-mode. Of course, the benefit of using your steam oven is that you can cook some vegetables at the same time for an easy delicious salad or side dish. If your oven doesn’t have small-sized pans to cook the ½ cup of couscous, use a small Pyrex or other ovenproof casserole dishes. INGREDIENTS ½ cup whole wheat couscous (I used the Trader Joe’s brand) ½ cup water 2 large broccoli crowns, florets, and some tender slices of the stem only ½ red onion, minced ½ cup dried cranberries ½ cup toasted almonds (toasted in regular Bake mode 350 for 10 minutes) ½ cup toasted pepitas (toasted with the almonds) Dressing 3 tbsp olive oil 3 tbsp mayonnaise 1 tbsp Dijon mustard 2 tbsp apple cider or golden balsamic vinegar PREPARATION Heat the steam oven in the steam mode at 212 degrees. Place the couscous in a small solid pan and add ½ cup of water and a pinch of kosher salt. Place the broccoli florets and stems in the perforated pan. Slide the pans into the oven and set the timer for 6 minutes. Remove the broccoli and set it aside to cool before adding to the remaining salad ingredients. Leave the couscous in the oven for another 6 - 8 minutes until all the water has been absorbed. Combine the remaining ingredients in a large shallow bowl and prepare the dressing. Combine the dressing ingredients in a glass measuring cup, mix well and add a good pinch of sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
