Steam cooking requires less time, and thanks to the delicate effect it produces, it cooks in a different way, locking-in food's nutritional and sensual properties. This means that delicious, wholesome, prime ingredients retain all of their original aroma, color, and texture. What's more, cooking in a humid environment doesn’t dry dishes out; indeed, it ensures all of the aromatic properties are sealed inside, so that foods retain their full flavor and true essence.
