Shoho Two-Tier Steamer Set Steamer Made of Japanese cedar More durable than standard products The outer part of the claws is reinforced with bamboo, making it highly durable and a long-lasting item. With two tiers, you can steam twice the amount, and there's no difference in the steaming results. The included steaming plate is 29cm. The 24cm size is large enough to steam dishes, so you can put ingredients in the steamer with the dish, expanding the range of your cooking. Also, there's no need to use cooking paper or leafy vegetables, saving you even more time and money, and eliminating the need for troublesome cleanup. It doesn't take up much storage space, and it's the perfect size, not too big and not too small. Because natural materials are used, there may be black spots, uneven coloring, and peeling of bamboo fibers from the time of manufacture. Also, there may be original stains and peeling characteristic of natural materials. Quoted from the website Sold out on the website I steamed sweet potatoes several times. Since I steamed them with the dish, the food didn't stick to the basket, so I don't think there's any smell. The steaming plate has a used feel, perhaps due to limescale. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. Thank you for viewing.
