Instructions
-
Place the wok on the burner. A deep pan will do as long as the steamer fits in the pan snugly and the pan is deep enough for a bamboo layer you will use.
-
Layer your steamer with parchment paper or lettuce leaves, then place your food on the paper or lettuce leaves, putting the food requiring the longest cooking time on the bottom. Repeat these steps for each section of steamer you are using.
-
Place the bottom layer of your steamer in the wok, leaving a little room around the sides but still making a snug fit.
-
Pour water into the wok or deep pan until it reaches the steamer's bottom rim. Stack any other bamboo steamers you are using on top.
-
Turn on the stove burner and bring water to a boil. Follow your specific recipe for heat level and cooking time.
-
Turn off the burner and remove from heat when desired cooking time is finished.
-
Separate the steamers if you have more than one and remove the lids to allow steam to escape. Turn the food onto plates or serve from the bamboo steamers.
