How to steam vegetables in Norpro microwave silicone steamer

1. Add required water amount to the outer Norpro silicone bowl.
2. Place steamer insert in the bowl.
3. Add vegetables, chicken breast or fish fillets on the steamer insert. 
4. To prevent hand burns and spills through the lid: place silicone steamer on a flat plate and then put it in microwave, so it can be easily taken out with a plate when food is cooked. It will give more stability to the soft and flexible steamer.
5. After steaming, since the holes are covered with food, all the steam comes out through 2 recesses, where you hold the insert, leave it for 1 minute, to reduce the steam and then take the steamer insert out and serve.
