How do you cook in a steamer basket?
Set the steamer basket into the saucepan and place the food inside. Once the water is boiling, rest the steamer basket in the saucepan, making sure that the water stays below the basket. Add the food that you want to steam to the bottom of the basket.
Can you use a steamer basket in a pressure cooker?
The Quick Cooker Steamer Baskets are only to be used in Pampered Chef’s Deluxe Multi Cooker or Quick Cooker. Do not use in other pressure cookers. Do not use if the product or the Deluxe Multi Cooker or Quick Cooker are damaged. The Steamer Baskets and their contents can cause serious burns if handled improperly.
How long do you steam food in a steamer basket?
Cover the top of the steamer basket with the lid. If the bottom layer of food is underwater, pour out some of the water before placing the basket into the pan. Let your food steam until it’s cooked to your liking. How long you steam the food depends on the type that you’re cooking.
What is a steamer basket?
Compared to something like a sieve or strainer, a designated steamer basket holds food in a single layer, ensuring that every morsel cooks through evenly. To set up your steamer system, fill a pot with about an inch or two of water, making sure that there’s plenty of space between the water and the steamer basket.
