steamed dishes
Vapor-prepared cuisine items
Steamed dishes are foods cooked by steam heat rather than direct contact with water or oil.
The method preserves nutrients and produces moist, tender results without added fat.
Chinese cuisine features many steamed dishes—dumplings, buns, fish—typically prepared in bamboo steamers: We ordered several steamed dishes to share.
