Steamer (discussion of models, tips and feedback)

And the FSE are silent, they probably sleep ...
Tanya, and what is her size, eh?
I wonder what kind of bowl, and what it is, they write on ozone 32 by 33, it is square

[Trishka]

Trishka, measured the bowl inside, it turned out 28 by 15.5. Height ~ 10cm.

she is square

Oval. Rectangle with rounded edges in an oval shape.

If you desperately need an electric steamer - take BROWN, you won't go wrong.
The biggest advantage is that the liquid from the upper pallets does not fall on the lower ones and they do not mix, and does not get onto the food on the lower pallets. And just a practical and high-quality steamer

Watch attentively

Yeah, of course, it means it is 30 cm high ... otherwise I think it looks like a rectangle in the photo, and the dimensions indicate 32 by 33

We have 2 steam cookers - Brown and Tefal VitaKuzin (VS 7001). About 3 years ago I bought it, with the idea of ​​settling one of them in our private house, and the second to "travel" with us until everything is finally settled at home. I love both! True, now it is Brown in everyday use, because it is simple (nowhere easier) and reliable, and Tefalka is larger, takes up more space. Tefal is now temporarily in a box, waiting for better times and the kitchen is more spacious; D About Brown a lot of girls wrote, he is really the best. And with the outward simplicity and the absence of bells and whistles - such a well-thought-out unit! The main advantages are drip trays, high-quality plastic, a basket for coloring products (carrots, beets), a large container for cooking cereals. In Tefalka, there is water topping up, you can turn on the heating (the dish will be hot for another hour from the moment of preparation), there is a "Vitamin +" function, I like metal baskets, portioned cups, I like that in a large basket you can even steam chicken, so much it roomy! I like cereals very much from steamers, for a long time I cook porridge only in them. Vegetables are also much tastier than those cooked in water. The husband, who is far from cooking, respects Brown, sometimes even cooks in it: girl-swoon: She also taught my daughter to warm up food in a double boiler first, and not on gas - I was so calmer than leaving the child with matches. In short, before I would have just laughed, tell me who, that I will cook something in a double boiler! (There was an unsuccessful first experience with a Severin double boiler of the most simple design). And now - like no hands. And I cook eggs here, and all the cereals, vegetables - too. The funny thing is that both steamers were bought for mere pennies (in comparison with the real cost) in a new state on one well-known site: girl-yes: It was even strange to me that their previous owners did not appreciate such good things: girl-q: Because one is good, the other doesn't need it. It was curious to try out the new gadget, but now I got involved in such a way that you can't drag it away))).

[Alena Besha]

Alena Besha, Alain, thanks for such a detailed one, I now understand that it seems to be needed, but there is a stereotype in my head, it’s not salty, it’s not tasty, and I don’t imagine how to explain it to my men ...
Nowserano hach ​​it .....

sho it is unsalted, not tasty

This is how to cook And you will season it with spices, and your men will not even remember where you cooked, and will require additional

Come here I cook in a double boiler, I was convinced that useful can be tasty))

How can it be tasteless? The steamer is, first of all, a way of cooking REGULAR food!

[Trishka]

Trishka, I made ordinary potatoes in a double boiler for the first time, my husband did not see. And then he himself asked at lunch how the potatoes turned out to be tastier than usual. I showed, told, and now my husband himself prepares such steamed potatoes for breakfast for us.Now we don't cook it in water at all.

Oh, girls, you know how to persuade, my bastions are bursting at the seams ...

[Trishka]

Trishka, Ksun, I also have two hands for Brown, I love him with tender love)))
He has been living with me for many years, the plastic is excellent, the simple apparatus is really and very reliable! Lightweight and comfortable.
I love making vegetables and eggs in it. I constantly cook corn for children. Then I brought a bag of the sweetest sweet corn from food city, so the brown worked for me in full, boiled this heap, I vacuumized everything and into the freezer!
I really didn't know that food could still be warmed up in it! And also to heat the chocolate, my micro has broken down and now it is so inconvenient for me to heat the chocolate / butter for desserts.
So take Brown with peace of mind!

[Irina F]

Irina F, Irishik, thank you, Lana was persuaded, I will go ...



Oh, and I like corn like I love ..... childhood, grandmother, her warm hands ..... and buckets of corn and crayfish ..... and also seeds straight from the sunflower eh.

[Trish]

Oh, this is what you Fsyo described, as in my adolescence))). My girlfriend and I went to her grandmother's farm in the Volgograd region in the summer, to such a remote farm, and there Anthony has everything that you listed, as well as fresh milk, warm pies with potatoes in the morning, cabbage soup and potatoes with homemade meat / stew! !!! Aaaaaa !!!! How wonderful it was!



Trish, that's really, I haven't come across that corn before! So I walked around this market worried about how to choose something that was tasty)
And the corn is such that you can almost eat it raw, sweet and juicy !!!

this market was worried about how to choose something

Ir, listen, is the market generally good or not? I saw an advertisement about him, but were not yet

Wait, they'll knock me on my hat for a flood

grandmother on the farm

And mine is in Ukraine ..... Kirovograd region, my mother was from there .....

[Trishka]

Trishka, Xun
And you buy on the sly, and slowly do your usual actions not in a saucepan, but in a double boiler, for example. And clean, and lazy (you do not need to follow, like a saucepan) and useful. I, too, used to be wild about such a technique, and I did not understand - why did I give up on it? (Gee). Honestly - the taste is slightly different for vegetables and cereals that are boiled in water and in a double boiler. Ask our girls to test the unit for a couple of days - I hope they like it.

And finally - Avito has not been canceled) Moreover, for the experiment: mail1: I bought Brown, ideally for only 400 r at one time, Tefal was more expensive, of course, went to the other end of Moscow for them ... But why not buy , if a person tried it a couple of times, and understood, preparation is not his))))) And here I am: girl_pardon: Py. Sy. But of course, I also love new technology, that's it .... spontaneous purchase)))

[Alena Besha]

Alena Besha, Alenchik, Duc I first of all go to Avito and there is a lot of things ...
Now I decide ...

Girls, I don’t remember: why is everything in the steamer not salty? I salt the meat - I salt the fish, and I adjust the spices to taste right away ... What, not? Help, teach! Oh, well, I didn't salt the vegetables, but I don’t salt them anyway when cooking, acrome potatoes, but I’ve only cooked them there for a salad.

You can and should!

Only there are purely dietary dishes, for those who need it and prescribed by a doctor, a salt-free diet for a couple - then we cook without salt, spices.

And if a strict diet is not needed, we steam it as we want, with salt, spices and other delights.

A steamer is a way to steam food. Just like in a saucepan, a slow cooker and other bells and whistles.

I cook like this I cook in a double boiler, I was convinced that useful can be tasty))

[Admin]

Admin, thanks for the answer! It's just that this stereotype is often mentioned here - once per steam, then unsalted and dry ... so I started thinking.

I want to add that food from a double boiler is much tastier, since the steam does not allow the product to be digested, it remains intact, and all the goodies and usefulness remain inside too - which is much tastier and healthier
Take the same potatoes: there is a difference in the taste of the potatoes if you boil them in water (when the potatoes flop in the water and boil, which makes the water cloudy with pieces of potatoes) and steaming, when the potatoes remain intact, does not change shape, does not boil over time it takes less cooking. The taste will be completely different. It is necessary to prepare and compare the taste. Then the impression of taste will develop

We have 2 steamers - Brown and Tefal Vita Kuzin (VS 7001)

How do you like your Tefal in terms of washing these buckets with a million holes?

------------
Girls, I also wanted to ask, can someone have a Polaris PFS 0308D? I know (read the whole topic), Brown is our everything and if I buy for real money, then only him. But, now there is simply an opportunity to take very cheaply a slightly used Polaris indicated above (about $ 14). So I would like to know how the first steamer, for trial, for overclocking, will fit or a completely worthless creature?

But, now there is simply an opportunity to take very cheaply

So, we save up for a good steamer
In the meantime, you can cook perfectly like this I cook in a double boiler, I was convinced that useful can be tasty))

I still cook on the stove, although I have Brown

How to save up for a steamer Dried tomatoes in the oven, in fragrant oil (cooking and canning)

[Gingerbread]

Gingerbread, Allochka!
"Tell me, how do you like your Tefal in terms of washing these buckets with a million holes?"
I bought dish brushes a long time ago (and there are some in Fixprice, and where they sell all kinds of stuff for the house) - so I use them to scrape them so as not to scrape with my nails, picking out what is difficult to get. It turns out great! Yes, and a rather unpretentious Tefalka in care, simply tremendous. By the way, our Brown ordered to live long, stopped turning on. She was upset, of course (and what is small, simple, convenient), and again took Tefal out of the box. Without a steamer, I somehow feel uncomfortable: pardon: By the way, for every fireman I also have a double boiler insert for my favorite large saucepan, I tested it once when the light was turned off for the entire entrance due to an accident. But - electric is more familiar to me, more familiar. I think this is who is used to what, and on what he learned to "steam"

[Alyona]

Alyona, thank you very much for your prompt reply! I'm sorry for your Brown, of course.

And what a new one I got for 20 euros

And what a new one I got for 20 euros

Cool! Given that they cost over a hundred. Let it serve for a long time!

[Galina]

Galina, Thank you. I couldn't help but take it, although I don't seem to need it

I couldn't help but take it, although I don't seem to need it

For that kind of money, I would have grabbed just this without looking. This thing is always useful in the household.

[Lisichkalal]

Lisichkalal, Svetlana, looked at the link, what a cool steamer. I saw this for the first time. The volume is large, several dishes can be prepared at the same time.
Congratulations on your purchase! Delicious and healthy meals!

Girls, thanks Itself understood (though not the first time) that it is necessary to take.
Only there is 1 steamer, which I use once a year, plus there are a lot of units (I do not use), well, and a steamer for the microwave (3 minutes and broccoli is ready) ...
And here everything is so thorough, cool and so big ... so I brought her in with a bread maker, too, for 20 euros .... Big, looking for a place and getting rid of old models.

I understood it myself (though not the first time

I would ask ..

Haa, didn't guess
I just don't understand why it is necessary to cook broccoli in it for 20 minutes, if it will be steamed in the microwave in 3?
Rice there write 41 minutes to cook!
Are the tastes and usefulness different?
Or just this steamer for a family steamer breakfast / dinner / lunch?
But cool, of course;)

I just don't understand why it is necessary to cook broccoli in it for 20 minutes, if it will be steamed in the microwave in 3?

Try and compare ..

[Admin]

Admin added a review of the steamer-blender to the site Beaba Babycook Original.

I bought this steamer. Once I saw a similar one at Admin, I thought it would be nice to buy)))
Like it very much. It is convenient for me to cook in it.
I have my beloved Brown, but somehow it's a pity to drive her, I'm sorry for the electricity, it's a pity for the place. Moreover, I cook for a couple every day. And such a small steamer stands on the far burner and cooks or in the corner of the work table. I rarely use the second tier.
I have a Maestro, not dear.
Recommend!

[Lena]

Once I saw a similar one at Admin, I thought it would be nice to buy)))
Like it very much. It is convenient for me to cook in it.

In-in, very comfortable Only in it I cook on gas, constantly at work The rest of the steamers stand in a corner and nervously exchange glances from lack of demand

Lena, congratulations, great buy

I have exactly such an insert-steamer on the pan that was in the set. But somehow I like Brown more. There are also a bunch of steamer inserts in the Jamie Oliver cartoon, but they are large, I don't use them, they lie on the mezzanine.

I am on the principle: if you can cook on gas, why not Fast and cheap

[Tatyana]

Tatyana, I have everything electro, I don't care.

Tatiana, thank you!
While I am cooking something, I am simultaneously steaming something. Washes quickly. Then it is important for me that I cook not in plastic, but in stainless steel.
Space takes up less than Brown. Brown is certainly the best electro.
But so far, the drink is more important.)))

[Elena]

Elena, I have Brown lives on a loggia on a separate table, there I have an outlet. Very convenient, all couples are not in the apartment. There are also 2 multi. In the summer, the Miracle electric furnace is also added instead of the oven.

Sveta, I do not mind.) Everyone chooses what is convenient for himself. Everything happens in a small kitchen of 7.5 sq. M.
She shared, maybe it will be useful to someone, and not to convince the convinced.)

[Lena]

Lena, no, no need to persuade me. I also write my conditions, suddenly someone will like the idea.
I just looked at your steamer pan, I remembered my insert. Now I will definitely take her to the dacha, we live there in the summer and I miss Brown. And with this insert, the pan will be the very thing. Thanks for showing, it came in handy.
