Cedar Chinese Steamer, 27cm, with Lid, 2-Tier Set, for Home and Commercial Use, Natural Wood

<Why choose a natural cedar Chinese steamer?> ● Bring out the flavor of your ingredients: Cedar's unique moisture-regulating properties allow ingredients to be steamed to the perfect degree. The steamer absorbs excess moisture while retaining the necessary moisture, resulting in plump, juicy food without watery texture. This tenderizes meat and fish, while vegetables retain their sweetness. ● Preserves nutrients for a gentle, body-friendly absorption: Steaming cooking methods are characterized by their ability to prevent water-soluble vitamins and minerals from dissolving compared to boiling. This allows for efficient and easy digestion of nutrients. It's incredibly healthy, requiring no or minimal oil. ● Beautiful appearance and the warmth of natural materials: A carefully crafted cedar steamer creates a warm atmosphere in the kitchen. Serving steamed food on the table creates a beautiful presentation and sparks conversation. <Usage Instructions> Please note the following points to ensure long-term, comfortable use of your natural cedar Chinese steamer. Before use: ● Wet: Lightly wet the entire steamer (body and lid) under running water and drain lightly before use. This prevents food odors from transferring, burning, and cracking due to rapid drying. During use: ● Prepare the pot: Bring plenty of water to a boil in a pot (or frying pan) that is the right size for the steamer. Be careful not to let the bottom of the steamer directly submerge in the hot water. ● Caution when boiling empty: Check the pot halfway through to ensure the water does not run out, and add more water if necessary. Boiling empty can damage the steamer. ● Heat control: Generally, steam over medium to slightly higher heat, but adjust the heat if you are concerned about food burning. ● Cover: To prevent food from sticking directly to the steamer, we recommend lining it with parchment paper, a steaming cloth, or cabbage or Chinese cabbage leaves.
