Excellent product, very useful
An avid home cook that is a collector of both cookbooks and cooking gadgets writes this review. I use this steamer insert most days. I purchased the insert after continuing to read that steamed vegetables retained more of their vitamins and minerals. I did not want to go the bamboo steamer route, as I was afraid the wood could harbor bacteria. This product is now a must have in my kitchen. I have summarized my observations of this product below:
Pros:
1. Allows me to retrain more vitamins and minerals in the vegetables I feed my family
2. Easy to clean
3. Fits well in four or five of my Calphalon pots
4. Easy to store since it does fit inside other pots
5. Handles stay cool
6. Glass on lid is extremely thick
7. Glass lid fits snuggly which keeps steam from escaping
8. Large enough to steam a pound of haricot vert at one time
9. Excellent for making dim sum (steamed dumplings)
10. Reheats chicken breasts without drying...
Great value on a hard to find item and it shipped FAST!
The item was represented accurately and was in perfect condition. It was packaged well and received VERY quickly. It is just the right fit for the pot I had in mind and looks perfect!
