Never steam frozen meat, poultry or seafood.

j
Please note that one layer of food will steam  
more quickly than several layers. Therefore, the  
steaming time increases with the quantity of  
food, e.g. 1000g of cauliflower florets require  
longer than 500g.

Make sure that all pieces are of a similar size.
