Bamboo steamer baskets are made of interlocking trays with perforated bottoms that stack one on top of the other. The whole basket is placed over a pot of simmering water so the steam rises through the layers and cooks the food.
You can cook almost anything in a steamer basket, from whole or sliced vegetables to foods like dumplings and fish fillets.
