How to Use the Décor Microwave Dual Stack Steamer
Steaming your favourite dumplings couldn't be easier!
Add water: Pour ½ cup of pre-boiled water into the base of the steamer.
Load your racks: Arrange your dumplings on the steaming racks in a single layer, leaving space for the steam to circulate. Lightly mist the dumplings with water.
Stack and cover: Place the racks inside the steamer and secure the lid, ensuring the microwave steam vent is open.
Microwave: Cook on high power (1100W) for approximately 4 minutes, then allow to stand for 3 minutes with the lid on and vent open.
Serve and enjoy: Carefully remove the lid, check your dumplings are cooked through and enjoy!
Steaming something else? The Dual Stack Steamer is also perfect for bao, fish, edamame and vegetables. Cooking times will vary depending on the ingredients, quantity and microwave wattage, so refer to the product instructions for guidance.
