Rice Cooker Reviews
To begin with, the steamer can be used to makeany type of grain. I love to cook quinoa and amaranth in my ship! Since cooking times vary slightly from that of rice, should be good to find the instructions on the Internet or you need to do some tests to find the perfect cooking time.
Vegetables
My favorite way to prepare fresh vegetables in a steamer. One of the best parts of steamed vegetables is that it helps to preserve nutrients. I'm not a big fan of cooking in the microwave, butA recent study came out, said the steamed vegetables was much better at preserving nutrients boiling on the stove. Steam is the best way to preserve B vitamins, vitamin C and flavonoids in foods. High heat cooking such as boiling stew or destroys many of the health benefits of foods. Why do people choose to follow a raw food diet is not for cooking.
