With the development of the mainland's economy, everyone's wallets have also swelled, and if something is broken, it is basically replaced directly, except for some things that have emotional bearing, it is difficult to repair it.
I don't know if there is a friend's steamer that has been broken, if the steamer is broken, you will choose to throw it away, have you ever lost the steamer inside? If you lose it, you will lose a baby.
So, how to turn the old steaming grid into treasure so that it can regain its use value?
[▶> will be steamed to become a treasure in seconds<◀]
Friends who like to cook, or often go to the kitchen, are certainly no strangers to pots and pans in the kitchen, and all kinds of cooking tools have their own uses.
The mainland can be said to be one of the world's top food countries, simmering, frying, cooking, it can be said that different processing methods, the same ingredients will have different flavors according to different processing methods.
Among them, steaming is a unique cooking method, which uses the high-temperature water vapor generated by water heating to steam the ingredients above the steaming grid, which can be said to greatly preserve the original taste of the ingredients.
In addition to keeping the ingredients at a distance from the boiling water, even if the steamer is broken, it still has its own wonderful use, such as placing it on the balcony and becoming a homemade drying rack.
The tools needed are a few racks and ropes, and the rope is threaded through the clamps, and after passing through the hole in the steaming grid, it can become the kind of drying rack sold in the market.
Tie a few more to be able to dry more, but also pay attention to keep the gap, otherwise the drying clothes may not dry, in addition to drying clothes, steaming can also be used to dry bed sheets, but with this small clip is easy to tear the sheets out of shape.
The damp bed still has weight, so at this time, replace the receipt folder and directly put one end of the sheet around the perimeter of the steaming grid, which can become a sheet drying rack.
Not only that, but it is also used to dry some dried fruits, such as shelled peanuts or tea leaves, and small particles that are damp can also be used, if you are worried that it will leak through the hole, you can spread a layer of gauze to block it.
In addition to these two functions, it is also possible to tie a rope to the symmetrical two pairs of hollows in the steaming grid, preferably a sturdy one, and then hang it on the balcony, on which you can put some green plants that can hang down the branches and leaves.
The hanging green plant pots that originally need to be purchased can be directly replaced by the old steaming grid, and hanging on the balcony can also fully ensure the sunlight needs of the green plants, which can be said to be a multi-task.
[▶> have other wonderful uses<◀]
The old steaming compartment on the balcony can be used as a new tool and save a lot of money, but if you put it in the house, it can also be used as a lot of tools.
The steaming grid is generally metallic and strong, and the cavities on it are also uniform in size, which can be fully utilized, and it is also very convenient for coring.
Some friends like to make some desserts or snacks by themselves, such as hawthorn cake or sugar gourd, sweet and sour appetizers for the children at home to eat appetizers and healthy food.
However, the nucleus in the hawthorn is a very troublesome thing, and if you don't go to the pit, you may get stuck and have an accident, so it is also necessary to go to the pit.
At this time, you can use the old steaming grid, but the raw hawthorn is very hard, and it is generally difficult to remove the core directly, so you can steam it a little, and then take a straw and put the hawthorn on a hole in the old steaming grid.
Use a straw to pass through the place where the hawthorn has a pit, and you can directly and conveniently remove the core inside the hawthorn, which can be said to be easy and convenient.
Similarly, this method can also be used on jujubes, as long as it is properly handled, waste tools can also be successfully turned into treasure.
Some of the grids may not be like the metal ones we are used to, but they are concave and have some space, which is more useful.
The simplest is to use it as a draining tool, for example, after we wash the dishes and chopsticks, it is inevitable that there will be residual water in it, at this time, this steaming grid will be suspended in the air, and then the bowl with water in it will be placed downward, and the water can be effectively drained.
By way of analogy, this method can also be used to wash fruits, where the washed fruit is placed on the steaming grid, which can effectively drain the water, and there is no need to worry about the water in the fruit bowl sold in the market.
[▶ There is also a saying about > steamer<◀]
In fact, if you can, everyone must hope that your steaming grid will not become a "waste product", but whether the steaming grid will become a waste product is still up to the steamer.
Although with the advancement of technology and economic development, the price of the steamer is not particularly expensive, but it is still a lot of money to buy one, and it is definitely better if a steamer can be used for a long time.
Therefore, it is also a technical work in the selection of steamers, most of the original steamers are made of aluminum, and the steamers made of this material are relatively light, and the thermal conductivity is relatively good, but the long-term intake of aluminum still has an impact on the human body.
On the market now, basically the steamers are made of stainless steel, but there are different types of stainless steel, and the cheapest one may be 201 stainless steel.
Although 201 stainless steel is cheap and lightweight, it is easy to rust in a humid environment, but the bottom of stainless steel is to add water, so if you want to buy a steamer of this material, it is best to consider it.
Nowadays, food-grade 304 grade stainless steel is basically the mainstream product in the market, this grade of stainless steel can be directly in contact with food, whether it is corrosion resistance or oxidation resistance is relatively good.
In addition to the material of the steamer, there are many things to pay attention to, such as the lid, the general steamer lid material is divided into three types, namely glass lid, stainless steel lid and combined.
These three materials can be said to have their own advantages and disadvantages, glass can see the food in the pot, but generally the arc is small will affect the capacity in the pot, and stainless steel is the opposite, although it can increase the capacity, but to open to see the food.
The combined lid, that is, made of glass and stainless steel, although it has the advantages of both, the disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, the price.
No matter what material the steamer is, it can be said that it has its own characteristics, and everyone can choose it according to their needs when purchasing.
Originally, it was all used as garbage, and the steaming grid was directly discarded with the steamer that could not be used, but I didn't expect that there would be so many other wonderful uses, and it can be said that I have learned a lot.
In life, many things can be reused to turn waste into treasure, as long as you have an eye for discovery, you can regain a lot of "treasures", in addition to these usages, do you have any tips for sharing steaming?
