The Steam&Hold™ Steamer is the only steamer on the market that uses vacuum technology to lower steam temperature. It can create steam as low as 125°F with the Steam&Hold™ or use Fast Cook Mode at normal 212°F temperature. This makes the Steam&Hold™ the most versatile steamer available.
Steam&Hold™ steamers cook like normal steamers but with added versatility of lower temperature steam. Vegetables cook at lower temperatures to retain more nutrients and better color with longer hold times. Proteins cook at lower temperatures for improved quality and increased yield. For special diets requiring mechanical and pureed foods cooked in molds, the lower temperatures prevent cracking during cooking, providing much better plate presentation than other cooking methods.
