additional language and photograph needed

[edit]

article needs reference to low-tech "double boiler" that can also be used as a steamer. the article on couscous has a photograph of a stove-top steamer.--71.183.238.134 (talk) 01:00, 20 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You can also use a normal pot for steaming. But its not the point to list every posibility in this article --95.89.180.211 (talk) 01:09, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Pressure ?

[edit]

I wouldn't think a steamer necessarily needs to hold the steam in under pressure. To me, that's a pressure cooker, not a steamer. The simple arrangement where the steam pushes out around the lid (held down by gravity alone) doesn't seem like it would increase the pressure inside by a significant amount.

@StuRat: I also just noticed this and agree, I have altered the lead. There are other issues with the article like the lack of sources to support the various claims. Thanks. (I am not watching this page, so please ping me if you want my attention.)PaleoNeonate08:26, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
