Food steamers

Steaming is healthier than boiling or frying; less nutrients are lost and the food does not absorb any fat, there are no added calories.

Steam all kinds of food: vegetables, rice, pasta, fish, seafood, meat. An electronic steamer makes this easy. Most of them can start cooking immediately, or delay cooking up to twelve hours. An electronic steamer can turn off automatically when cooking is finished, or keep food warm while the rest of the meal is being prepared.

Even if you use your normal pan, steaming is still the healthiest cooking method. Steaming is healthier than boiling or frying as less nutrients are lost, and the food does not absorb any fat, so there are no added calories. The advantages of steaming via the microwave are still on debate, though.
