Steamer Insert Fissler Profi Collection 28 cm stainless steel – for 28 cm cookware

The Fissler Profi Collection 28 cm stainless steel steamer insert is designed for use with 28 cm cookware to steam vegetables, fish and other foods while retaining nutrients and texture. Constructed from stainless steel with a perforated base, this insert sits securely in compatible pots to allow even steam circulation and efficient cooking. The accessory is intended for everyday steaming tasks and integrates with cookware systems that accept a 28 cm insert.

Advantages

The stainless steel build offers corrosion resistance and a smooth surface that is easy to clean. A perforated base and side panels provide consistent steam flow for uniform cooking results. The insert's dimensions match 28 cm cookware, ensuring a stable fit and simple handling. Its durable construction supports frequent use without deformation and is suitable for steaming a wide variety of foods while preserving flavour and vitamins.

Suitable for

• Steaming vegetables to retain colour and nutrients
• Cooking fish and seafood gently to preserve texture
• Preparing dumplings, couscous or small portions of grains
• Reheating foods using steam to avoid drying out

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel
• Diameter compatibility: 28 cm cookware
• Design: perforated base and side walls for steam circulation
• Finish: polished interior and exterior for easier cleaning
• Weight and dimensions: sized to fit standard 28 cm pots without obstructing lid closure

How to use

Pour an appropriate amount of water into the base pot—enough to generate steam without touching the food. Place the Fissler steamer insert into the 28 cm pot, ensuring it sits securely. Arrange food in a single layer or in small batches to allow steam circulation. Cover with a matching lid and heat until steam is produced; adjust heat to maintain a steady simmer. Check food periodically for doneness and remove the insert using oven mitts or a suitable handle to avoid contact with hot steam.

Usage recommendations

Use filtered or tap water as appropriate for your local conditions and avoid overfilling the pot to prevent boiling water from contacting the food. For best results, cut ingredients into uniform sizes and avoid stacking items too high. After use, allow the insert to cool before washing; handwashing with mild detergent preserves the polished finish longer, though the stainless steel construction is compatible with dishwashers.
