Electric Steamers and the Many Benefits Of Steaming Foods

One of the easiest to use and versatile appliances in the kitchen is an electric steamer. You can find electric steamers under other names such as rice cookers and food steamers. Either way using a steamer to steam vegetables or your rice is a great and easy way to prepare delicious meals.

When cooking vegetables in a traditional way, in a pan on a stove, you can sometimes end up with mushy and pale Looking vegetables. Often the water you cook the vegetables in carries more nutritional value than the actual vegetables you have cooked. The water absorbs all the vitamins and minerals that the vegetable is known to carry. When cooking such vegetables with a pan on the stove, we tend to overcook them until they are pale and soft in texture. If you use a steamer to cook your vegetables it will prevent overcooking from taking place. Using an electric steamer, water is evaporated through a valve, leaving you with beautifully cooked, nutritious and succulent vegetables.

Cooking rice perfectly is a skill in its own right and a difficult one to master that! It’s not uncommon to get impatient while waiting for the rice to be cooked properly and completely tender when using traditional methods. Sometimes you can even scorch the bottom of the pot and give the rice a burnt taste. Using an electric steamer to cook rice means you cook it to perfection every time because most of them come with built-in timers. Everything is taken care of for you leaving you with delicious, tender rice.

You may be surprised to know that it is possible to cook a whole meal in one of these electric steamers. This proves to be a time saving practice because you can put all the ingredients in at once and cook them together using the inbuilt timer means you can sit back and relax.

Sometimes you can end up purchasing large electric steamers if it suits your family life better. These steamers often come with baskets which keep foods separate. This means you are able to cook more than one food at the same time. Electric steamers are incredibly practical and healthy to use and I’m sure the more you use your electric steamer to more uses you will find for it.

If you are interested in purchasing an electric steamer, why not have a look around for some cookbooks which are designed give you some imaginative and creative ways to cook delicious, succulent, and healthy food. A good place to start is Amazon.com as there are many books available very cheaply there. Alternatively you also many websites dedicated to the subject.

In bread-making or any type of food preparation where dough is involved, kneading the dough is a time-consuming task. If you have a restaurant, bakery or pizza shop, time isn’t on your side. You must accomplish your food preparation quickly in order to satisfy your customers’ needs.

A spiral mixer is the appliance that will dramatically cut down on the amount of time it takes to knead dough. With this type of mixer, a spiral-shaped hook, or agitator, remains stationary while the mixing bowl turns. There are models available with a number of features, some of which are: two speeds, programmable controls, stainless steel bowls, heavy-duty cast iron construction, spiral hooks for better and more efficient mixing, torque transmission to cut down on vibration and noise, safety guard and mixing tools, motor overload protection and easy maintenance. You can choose a smaller unit with a 50 lb. dough capacity or a unit that can handle up to 550 lbs. of dough.

These appliances are designed for heavy usage, made by companies dealing in food and baking equipment. The manufacturers are aware of what it takes to competently run a business, so you are assured of getting good quality and efficient performance.
