Want to start the year with healthy resolutions? Prefer gentle steaming for your preparations. The objective remains to protect your food in order to preserve a maximum of nutrients.
The temperature must not exceed 95°C! At this power, the vitamins sensitive to high heat and essential to your body will not evaporate. Gentle steaming will thus facilitate the assimilation of your food, as well as your digestion thanks to the preservation of enzymes. They will thus respect the nutrients, without distorting their taste.
How to cook with gentle steam?
Whether it’s fish, vegetables, meat, or even fruit, you can actually steam cook all your savory and sweet dishes. All you need to do is get a steamer that is suitable for your fire.
Pour the water into the reservoir and place all of your ingredients in the bowls. When the liquid reaches the desired temperature, it boils and produces vapor. The food cooks using the heat and humidity diffused through the small holes in the baskets.
For ideal cooking, the important thing is to cut your ingredients into pieces of equal size. Place those that require more cooking time in the lowest part of your steamer.
