Steamer Baskets or Universal Steamer Insert


Which is better for your restaurant: A steamer basket or steamer insert?

Steamer baskets are versatile and suitable for steaming a wide range of foods, including vegetables, seafood, dumplings, and even tamales. They're ideal for smaller commercial kitchens due to their compact size and ease of storage. On the other hand, steamer inserts offer more versatility and capacity, making them perfect for professional kitchens and larger cooking tasks. They can accommodate a variety of foods, including larger quantities of vegetables, whole fish, poultry, and even rice or grains. 

Consider your cooking volume, kitchen space, and the types of dishes you frequently prepare to determine whether a steamer basket or steamer insert best suits your needs.

How to Choose the Best Universal Steamer Insert for your Restaurant

When selecting the best universal steamer insert for your restaurant, it's essential to consider several key factors. Firstly, prioritise durability by opting for inserts made from high-quality materials like stainless steel, ensuring longevity and ease of cleaning. 

Secondly, assess the size of the steamer insert to ensure it fits securely in your existing pots or pans while providing sufficient capacity for your cooking needs. 

Additionally, look for versatile inserts with features such as a universal steamer insert with lid  to accommodate various types of food and cooking processes, especially if they get messy. Compatibility with your existing cookware and kitchen setup is also crucial. Finally, prioritise ease of use by choosing inserts with sturdy handles or grips, facilitating effortless lifting and manoeuvring in a bustling kitchen environment.
