• The steamer must have a well fitting lid to avoid loss of steam.
• The steam must be produced throughout the cooking and therefore, the water must boil constantly to avoid reduction of heat/inadequate heat during the cooking process
• The container for food must be well covered to prevent the food from soaking up in condensing steam, as it dries up to make sure that steam is produced constantly.
