Best Steamer Sets for Commercial Kitchens
Steamer sets provide an authentic, gentle cooking method for dumplings, dim sum, vegetables, fish, and other delicate foods in commercial kitchens. These traditional cooking tools use steam heat to cook foods evenly while preserving nutrients, texture, and natural flavors that other cooking methods can diminish. Quality commercial steamer sets withstand daily use in busy restaurant environments, making them essential equipment for Asian restaurants, dim sum houses, and any kitchen featuring steamed menu items.
The category features bamboo steamer sets with stackable tiers that allow cooking multiple items simultaneously over a single heat source. Natural bamboo construction absorbs excess moisture during cooking, preventing condensation from dripping onto delicate items like dumplings and bao buns. Multi-tier designs maximize cooking capacity while conserving stovetop space, and the attractive presentation makes bamboo steamers suitable for tableside service in traditional dim sum settings.
We offer steamer sets from FMP, a trusted supplier of commercial kitchen equipment.
Why Choose Commercial Steamer Sets?
Authentic cooking delivers superior results for steamed dishes. Bamboo steamers provide the traditional cooking environment that produces properly textured dumplings, fluffy bao buns, and tender steamed vegetables. The natural bamboo material creates ideal moisture conditions that metal steamers cannot replicate, making these sets essential for restaurants serving authentic Asian cuisine. Guests recognize and appreciate the quality difference that proper steaming equipment delivers.
Gentle heat preserves food quality and nutrition. Steam cooking maintains the natural colors, textures, and nutrients of vegetables and proteins without the added fats required for sautéing or frying. This healthy cooking method appeals to health-conscious diners while allowing natural flavors to shine. Delicate items like fish and dumplings cook evenly without the risk of burning or sticking that comes with direct-heat methods.
Stackable design maximizes cooking efficiency. Multi-tier steamers allow cooking different items simultaneously, with each tier receiving consistent steam heat. This capacity multiplies output without requiring additional burners or equipment, improving kitchen efficiency during busy service. Stackable construction also simplifies storage when steamers are not in use.
What to Look for in Steamer Sets
Selecting the right steamer set depends on your menu applications, volume requirements, and cooking setup. Matching these factors ensures efficient steaming with authentic results.
Some things to consider when shopping for steamer sets include:
- Steamer diameter (sized to fit your wok or pot)
- Number of tiers included
- Material (bamboo or metal)
- Lid style and fit
- Construction quality and durability
- Stackability for multi-tier cooking
- Compatibility with existing cookware
- And more!
The right steamer set matches your typical batch sizes and fits your existing cooking equipment. Bamboo steamers work best over woks or wide pots that provide adequate steam circulation.
