Because of its health benefits, food on my table must be healthy and tasty. With steamer basket, you keep vegetable out of waterlogging, so the food stays full of nutrients, juice, and flavor.
With steam cooking, you preserve more nutrients. You get to keep all that extra vitamins that go to waste when boiling or oil cooking. On the long run, this adds up to a significant amount.
Besides vegetables, using a basket steamer, you can also cook fruit, chicken, seafood, and eggs.
Always have a cup of water in the bottom of your Instant Pot. Before you start a meal add this first and then you won’t forget. A cup is 250ml so you could use a jug to measure this out, a cup or whatever is easiest for you.
Not all meals are equal and you will find that even though you can cook broccoli for 1 minute, carrots for example are thicker and need much longer. So make sure you adjust your timings and get a good understanding of how long to steam different foods.
Using a steamer basket is quite simple. For the most part, it simply involves following the manufacturer’s instructions on how to use and for how long with specific foods. Here are a few additional tips you can use to get the most out of your steamer basket:If you boil an egg in a pan you then spend ages trying to remove the shells, but the steamer in the Instant Pot makes it so effortless, that you will actually end up eating boiled eggs more and more.
For fish you can cook delicious fresh salmon and it comes out so amazing. None of the flavour is lost and its much lower in calories than cooking it in a shallow pan.For example you are making salmon and broccoli, then the salmon juices will drip down giving you a brilliant fish stock for a future meal.
Did you know that steaming preserves broccoli’s cancer-fighting nutrients that are usually boiled out? Vegetables are heaven on earth. That is because vegetables boiled lose not only the nutrients but also the flavour. Once you taste vegetables out of a steamer, you will never go back to boiled again.
Meat can also be steamed in the Instant Pot. Use steaming basket to elevate your pork while it cooks to prevent it from becoming too soggy!This is particularly good if you fancy a quick chicken salad. You could wrap some marinated chicken in silver foil, place it in the Instant and it will then be cooked while you are preparing the garnish.
