Today we are doing a tutorial on how to use the ballast steamer. We got this from amazon. Let’s get started, before you add the water. You want to make sure that you take off both of the trays and then you also take off the bottom base piece so that all you see is the base right here and then, that's where you're going to add your water. Now there's also a max line and since we have a lot of vegetables and two whole fish we're going to put it up to the max. You can also see the water filling up. So hold on, I’m going to put this back on like this do not worry the water will not smell, yes just make sure I put it back on and now we are going to start the timer it is plugged in we we're going to start the timer for about 20 minutes, we have vegetables and we have two whole fish but I’m good so you know what, I’m going to put it on 15 minutes because you can't turn it down to turn it off you have to wait for it actually to stop and then you unplug it so don't oversee don't put you know so much of the time on there it won't be necessary because you'll be having to wait so I’m going to put 15 minutes and then if i need to add time I can do that so now it's starting and it's going to start heating up literally in 30 seconds like it says on the box okay so my fish has been cleaned I’m just going to season it you can put any type of fish seasoning you would like but if you want the exact ones that we're using right now, I’m going to season the vegetables so look stir that around, you might want to get those hands dirty you know and now you got your vegetables you got your fish all seasoned up. you know some people want a little more some people want a little less yeah so it's also your license plate whatever you're going to notice after you already started it within 30 seconds it's automatically so then you go and you take your tray off and you put whatever you think  we put like the things that we think going to take longer at the bottom so like the bulky items kind of like the fish we put that at the bottom lining that up we're going to cover it with the tray okay and then we're going to add the vegetables to the top so just as you see and there's only one lid because it's both going to be covered get it up there okay so the food is in we're going to wait for the 15 minutes for it to be finished well it really says 12 minutes for the whole fish but we like to cook our stuff just a little bit longer just to make sure that it's well done however there is a tray here to take out what you do is you take it out and this is for if you need to add more water if you are using um the steamer for other things right now we are just simply cooking the fish and the vegetables so we are not going to need to keep adding water to this because we are not cooking anything else after this so what you do is you just pull it out add some water you pour it in just a little bit it's going to take about maybe 10 seconds for you to see the line go up for how much water is in it you know this is a really good feature I like that so if I do need to cook other things I can just keep going and refilling the water because it does lower. We did forget to put some of the garlic on it so what you can do as well as another great feature you can always take off one of the lid and just go ahead and add that extra seasoning to your food as you like just in case you didn't forget anything at other than one two three and then you pop it right back on and then you are good to go so we did add an additional about five minutes or so while we are playing kind of like the food we're just going to let that timer run out because we believe the food is done so we're just going to let that rest of that steam just cook it out keep it nice and warm as we are plating at this time now we got the finished product we're about to enjoy this beautiful steamed red snapper with our steamed vegetables okay so I already took off the top this is the bottom this is how it looks we're letting the timer run out it's literally getting ready to stop once it stops we're going to go first of what we're going to eat and then we are going to take all of this off , I’m going to dump it out.  I’m going to take it off carefully it's very hot pour it over okay put it there and then this water in here come closer okay you want to be careful that you do not wet this I’m very like afraid of stuff like that let's just make sure we dump it off on the side really quickly and then we're going to put it over on the side to cool this only needs to just be like slightly rinsed out this needs to be cleaned thoroughly with bleach this is very greasy so you want to just make sure you know just cleaning purposes and storage purposes you really have to clean this squeaky because it is greasy so overall the steamer this is the box that it came in is a very very good investment for a lot of different things you know to eat healthier if you want to do something quick just to have a really tasty meal this is definitely the wrap you want to go I really do enjoy using this steamer I know this is not a paid article this is literally just because I’m just so excited that I found something so great and it's definitely a money saver because we have been going to our local fish market and having this fish steamed regularly and now we can just do it right at home I’m very excited so very well that is it for today see you soon
