Steaming is a great way to prepare healthy and tasty meals. If you care about your diet and are looking for ideas for easily digestible dishes, a steamer is a perfect choice. This is equipment used for fat-free heat treatment of food. It uses steam generated by boiling water in a tank located at the bottom of the device.
How to steam in a pot? Try the “spoon method”
The steamer is covered with a lid that prevents steam from escaping. Most often, fish, seafood and rice are prepared in it. If you want to try preparing such a meal yourself at home, but you cannot afford to buy a device, try the home method.
Antonella Santorsola shared the trick on her Instagram profile @fiore_dolce_casa. He places four metal spoons at the bottom of the pot and pours water over them. Then he puts a plate of food on it. In Antonella’s case it is turnips. The woman covers the pot with a lid and turns on the stove. After a while, he reveals the contents of the pot. The cooked vegetables are ready to eat.
Steaming without a steamer. Good for health and taste
Steaming vegetables takes 10-20 minutes. Water boiling in the pot produces steam, which creates a temperature inside of approximately 110 degrees Celsius. In this way, the dish retains all its nutritional values, natural taste and color. Additionally, it is easily digestible and low-calorie. The vegetables are soft and juicy, so you can enjoy their subtlety. The spoon trick will work not only when cooking turnips, but also broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, green beans and asparagus.
