Review on 🥦 Efficiently Steam Vegetables with the Cestari Kitchen Microwave Vegetable Steamer by Justin Jeppi

As a pescetarian, I eat a lot of fish and vegetables. I'm concerned about nutrient retention, so I often steam in my old metal vegetable steamer. It works well but has some stability issues, takes time to heat up and I sometimes find the metal interacts with more acidic foods and sauces. The Cestari Kitchen Easy Pod promised to make my life easier by allowing me to steam fish and vegetables in the microwave using minimal water and much less time than using a stovetop steamer. The silicone steamer basket is dishwasher safe, heat resistant, microwave safe and BPA free. I really like that they used LFGB certified silicone which meets European food safety standards, meaning it has been tested to NOT transfer any chemicals into the food being cooked. Storage. I use a rubber band to keep it on a tight roll for compact storage in my tiny kitchen - wish they had a flexible tie or product ring. The bowl unfolds into a silicone serving bowl, allowing you to cook and serve without having to move your food to another bowl. This works especially well with corn on the cob as I have a separate plate for the corn so I don't have to worry about the corn rolling up and being coated in barbecue sauce - it sits nicely in the pod with melted butter until I'm done am to cook. . EAT it. This microwave vegetable steamer is more versatile than my old metal steamer. I like to steam veggies in the microwave and then add beaten eggs for a quick omelette. This is definitely something you can't do with a steamer. I also like steaming the potatoes in the pod to start cooking, then adding oil and herbs, opening the pod and toasting in the oven. I get nicely toasted fries in a lot less time and cleaning up is just as easy. BENEFITS: Microwave Steaming You can start in the microwave and finish in the oven.
