FAQ

Q: How do I use this steamer basket?
A: Fill a pot or wok with a small amount of water, bring it to a gentle simmer, place the steamer above the water (without submerging it), add your food in a single layer, cover with the lid and steam until cooked.

Q: Can it be used on any type of stove?
A: Yes. Use any stovetop that can heat a pot or wok of water-gas, electric, ceramic or induction (with a compatible pot). The steamer itself never touches the heating element, only the steam.

Q: How should I clean and care for it?
A: Allow the basket to cool, then rinse with warm water and mild soap if needed. Avoid soaking for long periods. Let it air-dry completely in a well-ventilated area before storing.

Q: Do I need liners when steaming?
A: Liners are recommended for sticky foods like dumplings or buns. You can use parchment paper with small holes, cabbage leaves, or reusable steamer liners to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
