Features: Whether using a rice cooker or a steamer, or even just placing a steaming rack on a wok, any dish can be prepared with them. If the portion is small, you can steam multiple dishes at once. I often steam vegetables on top of the rice cooker while cooking rice, or simmer soup in the lower layer and steam dishes in the upper layer, saving both time and space. For busy modern people, balancing health and deliciousness, "steaming" is a cooking method worth promoting vigorously. In fact, steamed dishes can be light but not limited to being light. Through variations in seasonings, those who enjoy spicy flavors can eat and drink as they wish, because steaming is a method, not a format. The variations depend on personal preferences. Through steaming, whether it's dishes, snacks, or soups, they can all be easily prepared. The examples provided in this book are the best reference for readers to learn by example. Steaming really is delicious.
As modern people pay more attention to health and wellness, they increasingly refuse greasy foods and the inhalation or diffusion of cooking fumes, whether from the early stages of cooking or during the process. But how can one cook without greasiness or smoke? As a cooking professional, I do spend a lot of time and effort to create various flavors and dishes, constantly innovating to teach readers new recipes. However, I often overlook the simplest, most basic, and most life-oriented topics—like cooking, which is such a simple method of cooking. Before everyone has advanced cooking skills, isn't it the most fundamental cooking method? Proven by time, such simplicity does not fade away but rather becomes more appreciated when we return to it, realizing its ease and convenience. It turns out that delicious food can also be this simple, and all the complexities can be reduced to such simplicity. This is the essence of cooking and the source of joy in the kitchen. Therefore, I share these insights with everyone, making cooking a light and simple task, and ensuring that joyful cooking also satisfies the desire for delicious food.
