HOW TO USE THE OTHER COOKING FUNCTIONS

3.5.1 PORRIDGE
This menu setting can be used for Asian rice porridge or oatmeal porridge. For recipes, see page 15.
The default cooking time for the 'PORRIDGE' setting is 1.5 hours. You can adjust this down to 1 hour or up to 3 hours
using the 'Hr' or 'Min' buttons once you have selected the 'PORRIDGE' setting and it is blinking on the display.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, Bamboo will make a series of beeps and will automatically switch to 'KEEP
WARM'.
3.5.2 STEAM
Using the provided steaming basket, you can steam different types of food. The default cooking time for the
'STEAM' setting is 10 minutes. You can adjust this up to 1 hour in 10 minute intervals using the 'Hr' or 'Min' buttons
once you have selected the 'STEAM' setting and it is flashing on the display. There will be a countdown on the
display – this will only start to countdown when the water has been heated. Using hot water rather than cold
water helps speed up the heating process. Fill to the 2-3 water level mark on the inner bowl when using Bamboo
as a stand-alone steamer.
See Section 5, page 14 for a guide to steaming
3.5.3 SLOW COOK
For cooking stews and other dishes like curries, dhal, or other pulses/grains select the 'SLOW COOK' setting. The
default cooking time for the 'SLOW COOK' setting is 3 hours. You can adjust this down to 2 hours or up to 8 hours
using the 'Hour' or 'Minute' buttons once you have selected the 'SLOW COOK' setting and it is blinking on the
display. When the 'SLOW COOK' cycle starts, Bamboo heats the contents of the inner bowl to a high
temperature (97˚C), it then switches to a lower temperature (87˚C) for the slow cooking. This is the same as the
'auto' setting on a conventional slow cooker.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, Bamboo will make a series of beeps and will automatically switch to 'KEEP
WARM'.
Bamboo is a very efficient, sealed unit induction heating rice cooker, the slow cook
setting will cook food faster as there is no heat loss. A normal slow cooker recipe with a cook
time of 7-8 hours will take 3-4 hours to cook in Bamboo. This is to give a more efficient slow
cook.
3.5.4 CRUST
For cooking Persian style 'Tahdig' rice with a crust, select the 'CRUST' setting. The default cooking time for the
'CRUST' setting is 1.5 hours. You can adjust this down to 1 hour or up to 2 hours using the 'Hour' or 'Minute' buttons
once you have selected the 'CRUST' setting and it is blinking on the display. After a period of time, Bamboo will
make a 'beep' and you can open the lid to add any additional ingredients (like butter, oil or spices). You then
close the lid to continue cooking.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, Bamboo will make a series of beeps and will automatically switch to 'KEEP
WARM'.
