Thank you for viewing. This is an aluminum steamer made by Hoku-a. It's a well-made, Japanese-made product, a standard item popular for home use as well as for professional use. Aluminum material has good thermal conductivity, and the feature is that it steams evenly in a short time. You can use it widely for various steamed dishes such as chawanmushi (savory egg custard), steamed buns, shumai (steamed dumplings), sekihan (red bean rice), okowa (steamed sticky rice), and steamed vegetables. A steaming plate is included inside, allowing you to arrange the ingredients stably. The lid comes with an explanatory illustration that clearly shows the cooking method, so even first-timers can use it with confidence. ■ Diameter: 27cm ■ Material: Aluminum ■ Condition: Used There are minor scratches and scuffs from use, but there is no noticeable damage, and the overall condition is good. *Please check the images for details. Recommended for those looking for a steamer pot or those looking for a sturdy aluminum steamer. We will carefully pack and ship it.
