Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Progressive International Microwavable Fish & Veggie Steamer
Customer Review: Great product, just don't follow the directions! (review for vegetables only)
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is WONDERFUL for cooking vegetables which is all I've ever used it for.
Original directions --> rubbery and very unappetizing veggies
My directions:
Add a splash of water to the bottom compartment (you can measure out a tablespoon or two if you really want)
Put the vegetables that you wish to cook in the tray with the holes, season with whatever you care for
Cover the veggies and set the microwave for 4-5 minutes on regular power
Stick around while the veggies cook, once you SMELL whatever you're cooking turn off the microwave
Leave the veggies covered for another 2-3 minutes so that they can finish cooking
Ready to serve!
Taste:it has produced some of the best tasting vegetables I've had since I've started college and my housemates and guests are all impressed by the flavor that is left by this form of cooking.
Durability: I've seen no warping of the plastic though there has been staining from certain seasonings and vegetables like yams (1 month of use)
Health: the whole reason I decided to buy a microwave vegetable steamer was because, using my UC online resources, I found that this method of cooking veggies leaves the highest number of nutrients to be consumed. This is because it take less time than traditional steaming and all steaming methods are better than boiling of any sort. So for those of you that don't trust cooking with a microwave since you've heard that it destroys all of the nutrients in the food many tests have proven this to be a modern day wives tale.
Fish? Since I've never used it to cook fish or anything else I cannot comment on that aspect of the product though other people have stated that it works well for that too.
