## Features

- WHOLE FOOD STEAMING IS THE BEST WAY OF COOKING - Steaming Whole Food (whole chicken, whole veggies, whole lobster, etc.) by wrapping it with hot vapor in an enclosed space is the best way of cooking: retain nutrition without loss of flavor. - This elegant mirror polished steamer set includes 9.5" steamer insert, 8" steam pot, and 9.5" glass lid - Easily meets a whole family's (4-6 people) daily need - 4.5" Deep 3-ridge steamer insert creates 5QT large capacity, great for steaming whole food.
- FEATURED 4.5" DEEP 3-RIDGE STEAMER INSERT - Tapered 3-ridge insert is 4.5" deep (deeper than competitors of the same width) - Enlarges the steaming capacity to 5 quart; also concentrates heat at bottom & creates the elevated steaming surface to surround food for whole food steaming - 3 graduated ridges fit 9.5" / 9" / 8" tapered or straight pots and allow for a stable placement - The universal insert fits well with 4QT steam pot included in the set and possibly your other pots or pans.
- NICKEL FREE HARM FREE - Made of food grade Japanese standard JYH21CT (21/0) nickel free stainless steel: non-toxic, non-allergic, and more energy savings. - Nickel-bearing stainless steel (e.g., 304 SS) is also commonly used for cookware, BUT nickel is high up on the ATSDR list of priority toxins (causing allergy and diseases), and nickel LEACHES under regular cooking conditions. - Nickel free SS is not only healthier, but also more heat-conductive hence more energy savings (12-15%).
- ALSO VERSATILE AS DRAINER BASKET & TABLEWARE - The steamer insert can be used together with the steam pot as a well-sized drainer basket, thanks to its deep perforated 3-ridge design. - You can steam food in this steamer and then put the steamer insert directly on a plate to serve (making itself a sleek tableware). - This is definitely a time saver and allows you to use fewer gadgets in kitchen. - This elegant mirror polished steamer set cuts a fine figure both in kitchen and at dining table.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Product description and photos have a glass lid, yet review photos show a stainless steel lid.  Which is it?**
A: I'm sorry for the confusion. FYI, the lid of steamer has been upgraded to glass material. The visible glass lid is more convenient for cooking observation.

**Q: Is this compatible with induction stoves?**
A: It is compatible with induction, gas, electric, ceramic, glass and halogen stovetops.

**Q: Is this tall enough for artichokes?**
A: The steamer basket is 4-1/2” deep, plus the lid is domed. I believe it would handle trimmed artichokes easily but you may want to measure yours.

**Q: Will cut green beans fall through the holes?**
A: The cut green beans will not fall through the holes.

    Excellent value
  

*by T***P on Reviewed in Canada on 16 January 2023*

It arrived this afternoon and we put it to use this evening.  The steamer portion is a very generous size - sufficient to hold broccoli/cauliflower for 12 people at dinner. The base pot is very nice with an excellent, thick and induction ready base.  The lid fits well too.  We got an email today reminding us to clean and prep the pot before using, and sharing lots of tips. Thanks, I'm going to see what else you sell so I might order something more.
