Norpro Deluxe 3-Piece Bamboo Steamer Set

Norpro Deluxe 3-Piece Bamboo Steamer Set Review



Norpro Deluxe 3-Piece Bamboo Steamer Set Feature

  • Each tier measures 2.75 inches/7cm height and 10.5 inches/26.5cm diameter
  • Works best in a wok, frying pan or stockpot
  • Add herbs to the water and the food will soak up the aromas of the herbs, enhancing the flavors of your meal
  • Soak the bamboo steamer in cold water for a few hours before using
  • To clean bamboo steamer, rinse with water and dry thoroughly. Apply a thin coat of vegetable oil to keep bamboo from drying out
Norpro's three-piece bamboo steamer set could steam a whole meal. At 10 inches in diameter and 6-1/4 inches high, it is large enough for eight pork buns (there's a recipe on the box) on one level and a mound of broccoli, carrots, and snap peas on the other. Just put the steamer in a wok or frying pan that has a little water in it. Then arrange the food in the steamer, cover, and heat the water.

Steaming is a remarkable healthy cooking style--it uses no oil, retains more vitamins and nutrients than other cooking methods, and helps seal in moisture. The lowest tier of the steamer will cook foods more quickly, so use it for larger items. Wash the steamer by hand, and give it a thin coat of vegetable oil after washing to keep the bamboo from drying out. --A.J. Rathbun Steaming enhances natural flavors while retaining valuable vitamins and nutrients. Steamed foods are self basting, so moisture is retained. A clean, quick and economical method of cooking. The lowest tier for meat or fish; side dishes and vegetables in the upper tier.
