COOKING ADVICE Do not overload the steamer baskets as this will prevent the steam from circulating freely. Steam cooking is simplicity itself, but it requires produce of the utmost freshness and quality to ensure optimum flavour. To test if the food is properly cooked, pierce the thickest part with a knife. If it is cooked, the blade will not meet any resistance.
