Steaming is a method of
cooking. The heat is generated by steam. The equipment used for this
purpose is the pressure cooker, or the old fashioned "Tondor", which
is a broad vessel, capable of holding water, and a contraption to hold a tray
midway, above the steaming water. Sufficient space above the tray, and a tight
fitting lid. These used to be made of copper, but now a days these are made of
aluminum .
The water in the pressure cooker, or the Tondor, should be boiled. Experience
also is a helpful guide, in the timing of the cooking.
