Place into steam oven directly. The oven requires a bowl of water be placed near the side of the utensil to prevent scorching. During spring and fall, follow the times outlined above. During the winter, we recommend adding 2-5 minutes fermenting time because the room is cooler. As the room is warmer during the summer,there is no need to place within the steam oven or oven, as fermenting can take place in the outside environment. If needed, follow the instructions for spring and fall outlined above.
