[@SidOhzen]

Glad to help! enjoy your now Steamer🥫

[@AnnaBeatriz-ed5bn]

Just purchased a bamboo steamer and they don't give such instructions so thank you for informing us. It irritates me that manufacturers don't bother to send proper instructions, specially when it comes to getting rid of the chemicals. Thank you 🇧🇷

[@SidOhzen]

Glad to help.

[@Abuumm_muna]

Is the steamer glued together with something? Glue or plastic, or is it completely woven?

[@reishiki5699]

Dang I wish I saw this vid first 😅 did not know you had to do that at all. Thank you so much!!

[@coreylaybolt2714]

I wish I knew this before I got my steamer. Good thing I want a bigger one now anyway. Thanks so much for this video. Very educational!

[@lynahowells8413]

I just purchased my 1st bamboo steamer, this video was super helpful on how to take care of it. Thank you

I wish I knew this years ago. I used to travel with my mini bamboo steamer in my backpack. Such great advice, thank you so much!

[@SidOhzen]

[@greeneyes6311]

Hi Thomene. I'm curious, what size (diameter and height) is your mini-steamer. And do you protect it some how in your backpack so that it doesn't get crushed? Thanks!

[@gentlemanlarryjones]

This was very helpful. I came here with the question of: do you need to soak it prior to each use, but this was good to know too.

[@SidOhzen]

Glad it helped!

[@SidOhzen]

[@koalasez1200]

Thank you! I got my steamer about a month ago and didn't prepare it like you did here, or oil it because I didn't know....there was no info about how to season etc. I've only used it a few times so I will go ahead and do this pretreat/season process anyway - better late than never. Your advice is very logical.

[@SidOhzen]

Yes you still can do season it after just few times used 👍

[@jodyglud4265]

Thank you for this video, I would have never known to do this. Thank you so much for the great care tips!

[@2urh]

I recently bought a bamboo steamer and I thought that the dust hairs on the steamer were mold growing out so I got very frustrated thinking I was doing something wrong and I wound up putting heat too high that now one of the lids for the steamer is a bit burnt. To say that I have learned a lot from owning a bamboo steamer is an understatement I'm still a bit afraid to use it right now even tho I have given it thorough washing of vinegar and virgin olive oil but I am far from giving up. Maybe not now good time to start but no giving up

[@joemule8858]

Just what I was needing, thank you for the video!

Hello Eddy, Thank you for this very clear video. I have a brand new bamboo steamer. I rewatched your video and realized I need to redo the initial curing process. My question is, how often would I need to refresh the curing process with the oil? Thank you!

Thank you very much. worry away bout mold

[@NoxaLunaMoon]

Thank you. This was a really clear and helpful video.

[@loventa]

Just bought a bamboo steamer! We keep kosher since my partner is Jewish and the way you kasher pots/pans/silverware is sticking them in boiling water for ~15 seconds. Or with big things we also do the submerge a section for 15 seconds and then keep rotating it until everything has been covered. Tried this method since this made the most sense to me with cleaning and adding oil to the bamboo steamer. Hoping my bamboo steamer lasts a long time!! Excited to steam veggies and meats in a more grouped manner - we had one of those that sit at the bottom of the pot and you throw all the veggies in but everything didn’t really steam that well that way. Hoping if I have tiers of baskets it might have more open space around the veggies to steam properly. Thanks!!!!

[@SidOhzen]

Its a pleasure!

[@Abuumm_muna]

Скажите эти пароварки склеивают пластиком?

[@loventa]

@@Abuumm_muna Hi, I don’t speak Russian but used an online translator to try to understand the question. I think you’re asking if the steamers stick together with plastic? My bamboo steamers have metal rings that have a lip that’s narrower than the perimeter of the basket so the next tier is slightly bigger than the lip so they don’t fall off when moving the baskets together around. I don’t have plastic in my bamboo steamer set - just bamboo and metal rings.

[@newtheboyzdeboisandnewatin9513]

Thank you so much for this! My question is, how/where do I store my steamer and wok, because I have a tiny kitchen with limited cupboards and virtually no counter space

[@Ambrosiacompanyllc]

[@rhondadodson8037]

Does the type of oil matter? I usually keep a variety on hand (vegetable, olive, sesame, avocado, canola, sunflower). Thanks for this video btw. it's very helpful.

[@SidOhzen]

Rather use the cheaper oils like Canola or Sunflower oil.

[@nancykoay612]

Thanks for sharing . FYI old steamer didn't have any problem ( medium size) but the one I bought large size ( 34 ins ) dunno what kind of chemical the factory use , the steamer looks mouldy with black patches. Sorry to say , earlier, I didn't know your method of maintaining the steamer, but my old steamer was OK until now. Can you tell me how do I get rid of those black patches here n there, it looks disgusting. Appreciate if you can give me some suggestion. TIA.

Thanks for this helpfull video!! I've cooked today black rice and it stained all the bamboo 😔( it passed the oven paper that I use to protect the bamboo) , how could I cleaned it? Thanks for the help!!!

[@SidOhzen]

If you didn't oil your bamboo steamer before first use and it's now stained and difficult to clean, I only can suggest trying to soak the steamer in water with a cup of white vinegar overnight for 8 hours and then using a brush or toothbrush to scrub it clean see if that way can helps.

[@jessejames5317]

Can you use coconut oil instead?also I had my first bamboo steamer never new to care for it lasted about 4 months.then it started to burnish at the bottom any tips to prevent this from happening in the future?must b something you can do to prevent that from occurring.I use big pot with stainless steel ring.bottom of steamer starting to burnish n stick n leaves mess on ring.

For the purpose of cleaning off chemicals i can see doing boiling water. But everytime after would hot water from the sink be good enough for cleaning? Mine isnt boiling hot but it's definitely scorching.

[@haratisharas2698]

hi...I steam the food every day,and planing to by this product...how to clean bamboo steamer after every use and leave it for next day? thank you

[@SidOhzen]

Just use hot water with a soft brush to wash and let it dry out.

[@nicolaj990]

Thankyou Eddy! This was very helpful! I just steamed my first ever dumplings and it went well! I noticed after the cook was done on the dumplings, the water left underneath had turned yellowish, is this normal?

[@eirin099]

Is it possible to correct warping/uneven steamer? Grabbed one at a store quickly without inspecting it and it isnt perfectly round so it sits a bit weird If i can for example force it into shape when its hot or something

[@a.p.b.9661]

Do you have to oil it after every wash? Or after every use? Or just the first time?

[@user-fi1ds2zr8s]

Can you make video how to care wooden steamer ??

[@annacarolinaizidoro3122]

After using the steamer should I wash with detergent?

[@LifeCubeProject]

Hey Eddy -- can you buy 2 steamers and stack an added tray or two? When cooking, I use both my trays and then need to empty one and refill it with the rest of the stuff I am cooking. Thoughts or advice are appreciated.

[@SidOhzen]

Yes, you can add more than 2 steamers, depending how powerful the heat of your stove is.

[@CVRCI]

Do you recommend the bamboo steamers that have a ring of stainless steel or shall it be fully bamboo? Thank you

[@SidOhzen]

The stainless steel ring is mainly to strengthen the protection of the bamboo steamer and it is not easy to deform. If you use it frequently, you can choose to add a stainless steel ring. The disadvantage is that the gap between the steel ring is not easy to clean。

[@visualmon3000]

Can I use olive oil in substitute for cooking oil or is it a bad idea?

[@holybathook]

Do you oil after every use? No matter the age?

[@SidOhzen]

not necessarily oli after every use just when you are going to store it and not use it for a while

[@geoedgarremo9033]

Can I still restore a moldy bamboo steamer? Or should I get a new one?

[@SidOhzen]

You can try this way: 1. First use a brush to remove mold 2. Wash with white vinegar 3. Rinse with water 4. Dry it in oven at 150 degrees Celsius for about 20-30 minutes （Make sure it is completely dry） 5. Finally follow the method in the video to restore the bamboo steamer
