• a steam-cooking appliance comprising a drawer extendible out of a drawer housing horizontally to a front, the drawer comprising a front reservoir portion designed to receive a water reservoir, and an evaporator tank portion arranged behind the reservoir portion and designed to receive an evaporator tank, a pivotably arranged lid designed to cover an open top side of the evaporator tank in a steam-tight manner when the drawer assumes a position in which the drawer is fully retracted into the drawer housing, wherein the drawer is extendible out of its fully retracted position into an intermediate position in which the reservoir portion projects out of the drawer housing for filling the water reservoir and the lid covers the open top side of the evaporator tank in the steam-tight manner, and wherein the drawer is extendible out of its intermediate position into a fully extended final position in which the lid is pivotably automatically against the evaporator tank such that there is a gap between the lid and the evaporator tank;
• and
• a further cooking appliance arranged above the steam-cooking appliance.

A method for extending a drawer out of a drawer housing of a household steam-cooking appliance, with the drawer comprising a front reservoir portion for receiving a water reservoir of the drawer, and an evaporator tank portion arranged behind the reservoir portion for receiving an evaporator tank, the method comprising:

• when the drawer is fully retracted into the drawer housing, causing a lid arranged pivotably on the drawer to cover an open top side of the evaporator tank in a steam-tight manner;
• and
• when the drawer is moved out of its fully retracted position into an intermediate position in which the water reservoir projects out of the drawer housing, enabling a filling of the water reservoir and causing the lid to cover the open top side of the evaporator tank in the steam-tight manner.
