About this item
- EASY VEGETABLE STEAMER : Most vegetables cook in under 3 minutes in the microwave with only a tablespoon of added water. Add butter, herbs, and spices before you cook for a tasty steamed dish you can serve right from the pod. No need to struggle with a tipsy basket, pots, and a large quantity of boiling water in a kettle. Think beyond vegetables - you can cook any food that needs to be steamed in this pod, such as a tamale.
- EASY OMELET MAKER : Making omelets in the pod is simple! Steam chopped vegetables in the pod, add your eggs and cheese, stir, then microwave for 1-2 minutes for single serving of a fast breakfast on the go.
- EASY ROASTER : Use instead of foil or parchment paper to roast chicken, or meat and vegetables in the oven. Pouch ooking produces a moist and flavorful result. Open the pod towards the end to brown
- EASY POACHER : Use the pod instead of a pot to poach fish or chicken. Place fish in the silicon pod with a few tablespoons of broth, juice, or wine, and bake or microwave until done. Remove the fish, and thicken the juices right in the microwaveable pod for a flavorful sauce.
- NO WORRIES : We've made this cookware to European standards, which are are stricter than those set by the FDA. This is the highest food grade silicone available, which is safe for your family and easy care. It is collapsible and rolls up easily for storage, making this foldable steamer convenient for even small kitchens ; you are protected by Cestari Kitchen's lifetime no questions asked guarantee.

Product Description
The Cestari Kitchen Easy Pod will become your best friend in the kitchen. You'll find yourself using it to make omelets for breakfast, reheat leftovers for lunch, and to steam vegetables, fish, and chicken for dinner.
The Kitchen Tool You Never Knew You Needed
The Cestari Kitchen Easy Pod is nonstick, so even foods like roasted potatoes will slide right off onto your plate.
In its pod configuration, it replaces parchment paper or foil for moist heat cooking; unfolded into a bowl, it serves salad or rice; and rolled up at one end, the Cestari Kitchen Easy Pod becomes a funnel to collect cooking juices for a sauce or a gravy.
Most vegetables steam in under 3 minutes. Just add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the pod, add the vegetables, close the pod, and cook on high power until done to your taste. You'll need to experiment until you find the time that works for you and your microwave.
Like all Cestari products, the Easy Pod is made of premium materials. We only use BPA free European quality premium food grade silicone in the manufacture of the pod, so you can feel confident when cooking for your family.
More Ideas for Your Pod
Steam vegetables like onions, peppers, and broccoli briefly first, then drain the water. Add eggs and cheese, and soft vegetables like spinach, close the pod, and microwave for about 1-1 1/2 minutes.
Add a tablespoon of water to the pod, top the corn with butter and a sprinkle of sea salt. Close the pod, cook on high for 2 minutes, carefully open the pod, turn the corn over and cook for 1 minute.
The pod is also a convenient salad bowl. Add lettuce, rinse under the sink, roll it up, and drain the water out the end. Open it up, add whatever other vegetables and garnishes you'd like and serve!

The Cestari Kitchen Easy Pod promised to simplify my life by allowing me to steam fish and vegetables in the microwave with a minimal amount of water and much less time than a stovetop steamer.
The dishwasher safe silicone steamer basket, is heat resistant, microwave safe, and doesn't contain BPA. I really like that they used certied LFGB silicone, which satisfies European food safety standards – meaning that it has been tested to not transfer ANY chemicals into the food that’s being cooked.
The microwave steamer has a flat bottom for stability, and rolls up for easy storage. I use a rubber band to keep it in a tight roll for compact storage in my tiny kitchen – I wish they included a flexible tie or ring with the product.
The Pod unfolds into a silicone serving bowl, so you can cook and serve without transferring the food to another dish. This works particularly well for corn on the cob, as having a separate corn plate allows me to not worry about the corn rolling around and getting covered with barbecue sauce – it just sits nicely in its pod with some melted butter until I’m ready to eat it.
This microwave vegetable steamer is more versatile than my older metal steamer. I like being able to steam vegetables in the microwave, then add beaten eggs for a quick omelet. That’s definitely something you can’t do with a stove top steamer. I also like being able to steam potatoes in the pod to start them cooking, then add butter and herbs, open the pod, and crisp them in the oven. I get nicely browned roasted potatoes in much less time, and cleanup is also easy.

Light, functional, easy to store and a breeze to clean up. What else can you say about your favorite new kitchen tool.
I love asparagus and now it's so easy to steam in the micro. Just add your favorite seasonings and three minutes later - boom.
The clasp on the top secures everything inside and takes no effort - no more fumbling with tin foil or tupperware lids. Also, the
bottom is flat so it won't roll around and spill. I haven't had a chance to bake yet but look forward to it. Recommend!
So-yes it does work as far as being able to roast items in the oven. My problem is the awkwardness and difficulty in retrieving the product from the hot oven. Most of us, I would guess use some kind of oven mit to retrieve a hot item from the oven. There is simply nothing really to grab on to in a practical way. Good luck trying to grab with a mit the tiny extruding closing flap on this product to lift it out of the hot oven. I could not. Then I decided a pair of tongs would work. Technically the tongs will work-but then while lifting the product out of the oven with the tongs, you have to keep the product perfectly level while lifting and removing from oven, as if it tilts to any small degree the juice or liquids inside will spill out whichever open end that is tilted downwards-even slightly.
So-to remedy that scenario-you would have to place the product inside a cooking tray and then use the mittens to retrieve the entire cooking tray with the product in the cooking tray.
