Choosing within the Bamboo collection

Why a bamboo steamer?

Bamboo releases excess cooking moisture, preventing condensation from falling back onto preparations. It is the reference material for steamed dumplings, dim sum, Chinese ravioli, steamed vegetables or fish in Asian cooking.

How to use it?

The steamer sits on a wok or a large saucepan of simmering water, of the same diameter or slightly wider. Place perforated parchment paper or cabbage leaves at the bottom to prevent preparations from sticking to the bamboo.

How to care for a bamboo steamer?

Rinse with hot water without detergent (bamboo is porous and retains aromas), gently brush, air-dry in a ventilated place. Avoid dishwasher and prolonged soaking, which damage the fibres.
