Steamer basket for small pressure cooker

Hi Sassy,

In using one of the small Magefesa pressure cookers that doesn't come with a steamer basket, is it okay to use a non-Magefesa metal steamer basket? We have some metal steamer baskets that we use in our regular cookware when steaming vegetables and were hoping it would be okay to use in the pressure cooker. Thanks.

Sassy Sez: Hi there --

Good question. I have never tried a regular metal steamer in a pressure cooker, but honestly I don't see why it would not work.

Have you tried to place it in the cooker to see if it fits? If so, why not give it a go and see how it works for you?

Please do report back - thanks. :) xo
