Metal Steamer Basket  

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
We've used a plastic Tupperware microwave steamer for vegetables for years. I think that's the last plastic thing we have that gets hot, so today I bought a metal steamer basket.

I'm assuming I boil water and then put the vegetables in the basket, right? About how long will it take to cook things? With the Tupperware steamer, I can pretty much cook everything for 5-7 minutes and it's done. Does a steamer basket take a lot longer?

I start the pot with water and basket on the stove while I chop the veggies. Usually things like broccoli take about 6 or 7 minutes.

Great! I was thinking it might take 20 minutes or something. Thanks!
