KitchenCraft World of Flavours Bamboo Vegetable Steamer (Medium)
Steaming is one of the primary cooking techniques in Chinese cuisine, with everything from dim sum starters to elaborate meat dishes relying on this traditional, gentle cooking method.
This robust bamboo steamer, from KitchenCraft World of Flavours, is all you need to explore this rewarding culinary landscape in your own kitchen. The only extras required are a wok, and a tantalising recipe to try out.
And if you like to entertain, or to show off your latest dishes to your family, then there’s even more reason to love this steamer. The bamboo makes for a simple, beautiful backdrop for your food, so it’s ideal for Asian food nights.
Bamboo Benefits
This steamer is great for cooking and serving, but not just because it looks great. The bamboo is naturally absorbent, so will sop up some of the steam and prevent your food going soggy. This means better presentation, and better flavour!
More Features
Healthy cooking
Using a bamboo steamer is a gentler process than boiling, simmering or poaching food, so it retains its shape, texture, colour and flavour. It’s healthier too, because no oil is required, and vital nutrients are locked in, rather than washed away.
Easy to use
The shape of the bamboo steamer is designed to fit snugly against the sides of a wok, though it works with stockpots too. Simply let the steamer rest above an inch or so of simmering water, to get delicious steamed results.
Two tiers
The two tiers allow you to cook for a number of people or a selection of different foods, from fillets of salmon to portions of rice, dumplings or vegetables.

KitchenCraft World of Flavours is a colourful celebration of everything you love about world cuisine. Spanning five countries and three continents, this extensive collection features all the tools you need to replicate your favourite dishes from Spain, Italy, Mexico, China and India.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 February 2025Size: 20 cmStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseBefore I used it for the first time, I had to cure the bamboo steamer. I washed it with water to get rid of the dust, then ran it through boiling water, and then rubbed some neutral oil on it when it was dry. Now, every time I use it, I rinse it and put it in the oven for a while at a low temperature to speed up the drying process. I tend to use it with waxed paper so that it doesn't get too dirty or sticky.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 February 2025Size: 20 cmStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseItem is exactly as described and works really well. Recommend using some parchment/baking paper and putting holes in to avoid items sticking. Easy to clean after every use but make sure to air dry it for 24 hours before putting it away

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 May 2024Size: 20 cmStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseVery sturdy steamer and I wouldn’t be without it now.
I use it along with my 18cm pot and it’s a perfect fit.
There are two compartments plus a lid.
So easy to use. Boil some water in pan and add your vegetables into the first compartment. You can use that along with lid but you may want to use both compartments depending on how much is being cooked.
Also can be used with different timings ie hard vegetables first and then add another tier for softer vegetables.
It does get very hot though and care should be taken when removing it from pot.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 April 2024Size: 20 cmStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseUsed a bamboo steamer for the first time and it was easy to use and easy to clean. I made bao buns and lined them with baking paper to protect the bamboo. The two tier basket was helpful in batch cooking and cooked the buns to perfection. The basket is sturdy but I am unsure how long it was last due to bamboo already detached in some corners. Worth the price paid for next day delivery to satisfy my craving for delicious bao buns filled with Korean style chicken 🤤The media could not be loaded.

D.Reviewed in Germany on 24 August 20155.0 out of 5 stars Sehr tolles Kochutensil
Size: 25 cmStyle Name: SingleVerified PurchaseMit dem Bambussteamer macht es wirklich sehr viel Spaß Bauzi, Dim Sum oder andere asiatische Rezepte nachzukochen. Es geht schnell, einfach und schmeckt fantastisch. Auch einfache Mahlzeiten mit gedämpftem Gemüse gelingen wunderbar. Die Reinigung ist ebenfalls einfach: man nimmt warmes Wasser und gegebenfalls etwas Pril und lässt den Steamer danach gut trocknen.
Durch das heiße Wasser dehnen sich die Einsätze ein wenig in die Breite, allerdings ist die Qualität gut genug um dem Stand zu halten.
Fazit: Ich bin sehr begeistert und kann den Steamer nur empfehlen.
