When cooking with a steamer basket, no fat is used and all the vitamins are optimally preserved, steaming is a healthy method of food preparation. Not only does steam maintain the nutrients in your favourite ingredients, it also retains flavour. You preserve the flavour of your vegetables, fish, or meat much better. They don't get lost in several litres of water. Try it for yourself! Cookinglife offers a variety of steamer baskets, but the principal remains the same.

How do I use a steamer basket?

Fill a pan with water, bring the water to a boil, and place your Cookinglife steamer basket with your favourite ingredients on top. It's that easy to use a Cookinglife steamer basket. All you have to do is make sure the bottom of the basket does not come into contact with the water. That's why it's a better idea to use a larger pan. This way, enough steam can (continue to) be created and your piece of salmon or chicken, for example, will be nice and tender.

Tip: Use baking paper in your steamer basket. This will prevent ingredients from sticking to the inside of the basket. You can also use banana leaves instead of baking paper. You can also use banana leaf as a nice packaging, and it is also very healthy!
