FAQ

Q: What size pot or pan do I need for this steamer?
A: Use a pot or wok with an opening slightly larger than 15 cm so the steamer can sit securely on top without touching the water.

Q: How do I clean the bamboo steamer?
A: Allow it to cool, then wipe with warm water and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid soaking for long periods and let it air-dry completely before storing.

Q: Can I stack more than one basket?
A: Yes. If you own additional baskets of the same diameter, you can stack them to steam multiple layers of food at the same time.

Q: Do I need to line the steamer?
A: For dumplings or delicate items, line the base with parchment, cabbage leaves, or reusable liners to prevent sticking while still allowing steam to pass through.
