About this product
This steam bowl cooks and serves homemade baby food in one 8 oz silicone dish, for babies from 6 months. Soft vegetables, fruit or fish steam in the microwave in minutes under a vented lid.
The Olababy SteamBowl uses a vented lid to circulate steam around food in the microwave, cooking small portions of soft vegetables, fruit and fish in minutes. The food cooks in steam rather than in boiling water, which keeps nutrients in the food, and the silicone stays cool to the touch at the rim.
After steaming, the same lid doubles as a strainer. The bowl then goes straight to the table to serve, with no separate steamer appliance and no second dish.

What can I steam in the SteamBowl?
The SteamBowl is made for soft vegetables, fruit and fish, steamed in the microwave in batches of up to 8 oz (240 ml). It suits small fresh meals for a baby starting solids rather than large batch cooking. The bowl is built for two heats, the microwave for steaming and the dishwasher for washing, so it is not for the oven or the stovetop.
Does steaming keep more nutrients than boiling?
The SteamBowl cooks food in steam, which keeps nutrients in the food instead of letting them go into boiling water. Its vented lid circulates steam around soft vegetables, fruit or fish in the microwave, so nothing sits in a pot of cooking water, and the food is served in the same 8 oz bowl it was steamed in.
