Thank you for purchasing a Food Steamer and you will soon be creating a complete, flavourful, healthy meal with steam heat! Steaming retains the vitamins and minerals in foods that are often lost with other cooking methods. Nutritious dishes are minutes away without added oil or fat. Steam fish and fowl, vegetables, rice, and even quick breads with ease of preparation and clean-up.
