Separators can be used to reheat food, including precooked frozen food, in the cooker. To reheat food in a separator/mold: put food in the separator/mold. Cover with aluminium foil unless steam/moisture will improve the food. Cooked rice, for instance, should be reheated uncovered. Estimate the cooking time according to the type, size, volume and temperature of the food to be heated. A separator full of cooked rice will require 2 minutes pressure cooking time. A frozen dinner requires about 10 minutes at pressure. With experience you will be able to judge the time. Add water according to the cooking time. Put grid in cooker. Place separator/mold on grid.
