This is not only well made of 100% Japanese steel it opens and closes so smoothly. The best part of this is that it is 100% plastic free. I searched high and low for a stanless steamer basket w/o a single piece of plastic from the feet of the basket to the handle.
JAPANESE COOKWARE
In Japan, pots and pans have been used for more than a thousand years. The country’s most popular methods of cooking are arguably stir-frying and simmering.

That's why pots and pans from Japan have evolved into some of the best in the world today over centuries.Showing 68 products
