Question from Sara

Debra,

I know you highly recommend the extrema cookware but I’ve never heard you mention their steamer which is made of silicone. I want to buy a steamer and I’m wondering if a silicone steamer would be safe to cook in or if I would be wiser to stick with bamboo or stainless steel.

Thank you,

Sara

Debra’s Answer

We’ve had a lot of discussion on this blog about all three of those materials: bamboo, stainless steel, and silicone. Personally, I think any of the three would be fine, but not all my readers agree with me.
