JIA Steamer Set
Best elegant steamer for design conscious home cooks.
This JIA Steamer Set offers an elegant approach to cooking, blending traditional design with modern functionality. The set features a basin and lid crafted from Chinese porcelain, paired with a unique steamer basket that uses customary bamboo but incorporates a terra cotta base. This terra cotta base is designed to retain moisture and provide insulation, enhancing the steaming process. Beyond steaming, the vessel can also be used as a conventional donabe-style pot by removing the basket insert. It is compatible with gas cooktops and is safe for microwave and oven use, though the basket must be removed for oven applications.
