For health-conscious cuisine and those who care about design, no other steamer combines functionality, materials and contemporary lines better than this set. The most awarded steamer and already the staple product from JIA portfolio was reinterpreted by Office for Product Design studio based in Hong Kong.The ‘Ding’ steamer set is a contemporary reinterpretation of a classic Chinese typology and consists of a cooking pot with an accompanying cedar wood steamer basket with a unique terracotta base. Terracotta is a material ideally suited in this context as it absorbs and retains excess moisture, thus stopping the food from becoming soggy. This feature also gives this otherwise ubiquitous commodity item a distinct character. The pot itself is made from glazed fireproof ceramic, which is highly resilient and can be placed directly on top of a heat source or used separately for oven cooking.This 4-Piece combo set is composed by the following:- Ceramic bowl with lid and basket steamer, large size- Poacher- Extra steamer basket, identical size as the one that comes with the large steamerThe ceramic bowl enables broths, braises and stews to add extra flavour to the foods in the steamer basket aboveBasket’s sides are made out of cedarSieve base is made of terracotta to absorb excess moisture and avoid food such as noodles and buns to become soggyWhole set is oven, microwave or gas stovetop safeUse and care manual includedDimensions: 9.6-in diameter x 11.6-in heightDesign: Office for Product Design, Hong Kong, 2009Awards: Gold Design Award, 2011, IF Product Design Award, Gold; Design Plus Award 2011; Designpreis Deutschland Nominee 2012.
