Stainless Steel Steamer Basket Review
Ever since I bought my multi-use pressure cooker back in march I use it at least 4 times a week. It has been the absolute best purchase I have made for my kitchen. One thing I haven’t done in it however is steam anything. Even though it did bring a steaming rack, I needed a steamer basket. In my regular pots I have used the traditional stainless steel steamer baskets that fan out. If you want to see what I’m talking about you can see this post here. However I didn’t want to use it in my multi-use pressure cooker. You’re probably wondering why… well I was scared that it would scratch the non-stick coating.
That’s why when I saw this stainless steel steamer basket with non-slip silicone covered legs I couldn’t wait to give it a try. It came very well packaged which is great because I would have hated to have it get bent in shipping. Anyway it arrived perfectly!
I immediately took it out and fell in love with how perfect it was. It was bigger than I expected it to be, so I was a little scared that it may not fit. My multi-use pressure cooker has a 6-quart non-stick cooking pot, which according to the steamer basket description. should fit. It looked big though, so I admit I was a little worried. But it is a beautiful steamer basket.
I absolutely love that the feet and handle of this basket is covered with silicone. The silicone feet gives me the peace of mind that my pot won’t get scratched.
And the silicone handle makes it so easy to take out of my pot even when it’s hot. Most importantly I love how perfectly this steamer basket fits in my multi-use pressure cooker, and the lit closes without a problem!
Not only does this steamer basket fit perfectly, but it’s such a great size to fit many veggies. I have used it to steam corn on the cob, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and carrots. Another great thing is that the steaming rack that comes with the multi-use pressure cooker fits inside this basket should I need to use it this way. However you can also place this basket on the steaming rack, too. I haven’t exactly measured the amount of water that fits below the basket, but it’s definitely more than 8 oz minimum requirement for my pot. This stainless steel steamer basket is exactly what I wanted and I am thrilled with it!
