As the food is not sitting in water, the
goodness does not drain out, and the
13 vitamins as well as minerals and
trace elements that are essential to
good health are almost fully retained.
For example, steamed food contains up
to 50% more vitamin C than
traditionally cooked food.
The result is delicious food that
requires little or no salt or seasoning,
additional spices or fat, and which
retains all of its natural goodness and
flavour. The steam oven is therefore
ideal for preparing light meals or baby
food, as well as for those on low-
sodium diets. Taste is not sacrificed in
the interests of nutrition and calorie
counting; to the contrary, your steam
oven sweeps you away to a world of
wonderful new delights.

1.
Nutrients
Scientific research proves that steaming
vegetables is much better than traditional
cooking methods for preserving delicate
nutrients such as vitamin C, minerals and trace
elements.
2.
Sensory properties
Scientific research has shown that steaming
vegetables is much more appealing to the
senses in terms of taste, shape, colour and
texture than boiling them in a saucepan. Our
steam ovens were awarded first place in all
these categories for every food type tested.
