Philips HD9110 ⁄ 70 [8/124] Using the appliance

Thyme, coriander, basil, dill, curry and tarragon are some of the exciting herbs and spices that you

can put on the avour booster. You can combine them with garlic, caraway or horseradish to

enhance avour without adding salt. We advise you to use 1/2 to 3tsp of dried herbs or spices. Use

more if you use fresh herbs or spices.

For suggested herbs or spices for various types of food, see the food steaming table in chapter ‘Food

table and steaming tips’.

Tip: If you use ground herbs or spices, rinse the drip tray to wet the avour booster. This prevents ground

herbs or spices from falling through the openings of the avour booster (Fig. 5).

5 Put the food to be steamed in one or both steaming bowls and/or in the soup/rice bowl.

- Put eggs on the egg holders to steam eggs conveniently (Fig. 6).

6 Put one or both steaming bowls on the drip tray. If you want to use the soup/rice bowl, place

it in the top steaming bowl. Make sure you place the bowls properly and that they do not

wobble (Fig. 7).

- You do not have to use both steaming bowls.

- The steaming bowls are numbered. You nd the number on their handles.The top steaming

bowl is no. 3 and the bottom steaming bowl is no. 2.

- Only stack the steaming bowls in the following order: steaming bowl 2 and steaming bowl 3.

- The soup/rice bowl is intended for steaming rice, soup or other liquid food. When you want to

use the soup/rice bowl, put it in the top steaming bowl.

When the steaming is nished, carefully remove the lid with oven mitts and place bowl 3

containing the ingredients with the shorter steaming time on top of bowl 2. Put the lid on

bowl 3 and set the shorter steaming time with the steaming time adjustment knob.

7 Put the lid on the top steaming bowl (Fig. 8).

Note: If the lid is not placed on the steaming bowl properly or at all, the food is not steamed properly.
