Steaming


  • Bring about 1-inch of water/seasoned liquid to a boil

  • Line the steamer with lettuce, onion, herbs or citrus (without covering all the holes) to keep seafood from sticking

  • Rinse seafood under COLD water to remove any ice glaze

  • Add seafood to steamer and cover loosely

  • Return liquid to a boil and steam 5 to 7 minutes

  • Remove from heat just as soon as seafood is opaque throughout
