Our three-part potato cooker is a tried and tested classic from before the times of modern steamers. It is ideal for gently cooking potatoes as well as vegetables, pasta, fish, and meat. Thanks to steaming, vitamins and nutrients are preserved as the hot steam prevents leaching and drying out of the ingredients. The foods remain natural and full of flavor, requiring less fat, salt, and seasoning. This potato cooker is also excellent for defrosting and reheating food. With a diameter of 18 cm, it can hold about 1 kg of potatoes, which are cooked in the perforated upper pot. Water is filled in the lower part, the pot with the potatoes is placed on top, and the lid is put on. After boiling, the temperature is reduced. In the tested potato cooker, not only potatoes and vegetables can be cooked tenderly, but also dumplings, chicken, or fish filets. Frozen foods can also be conveniently defrosted. The perforated upper pot can also be used as a vegetable sieve for washing potatoes, while the lower pot serves as a cooking pot without the upper insert. During the cooking process, the lid should always remain closed so that the water vapor cannot escape. Before opening the lid, you should wait briefly until the water has stopped boiling to avoid burns from the steam. Always use pot holders when doing this.
Before first use: Remove the sticker, fill with boiling water and vinegar, and let it sit for a short time.
Cleaning in the dishwasher: RIESS enamel can be washed in the dishwasher. However, we recommend hand washing to ensure long-lasting enjoyment of enamel’s brilliant shine. If you use the dishwasher, select the gentle glassware program to preserve the gloss and vibrant colors of the enamel for as long as possible. For sparkling clean pots and pans, use the gentle glassware program and the cleaning products from our partner Claro. You can find all tips on dishwasher care in this video.
- Before cleaning off food residues or burnt-on remains, fill the still-warm cookware after cooking and emptying with warm – never cold – water and dish soap. After a short soaking period, the cookware can be cleaned effortlessly.
- For particularly stubborn or burnt-on residues, briefly boil water with dish soap.
- For cleaning, use RIESS Enamel Care or a mild scouring milk, as well as the smooth side of a sponge or a soft brush.
- Avoid using wire brushes, steel wool, abrasive powders containing sand or sponges with ceramic particles.
More helpful care tips
- Store the cookware well dried. Any lime stains can be easily removed with vinegar water.
- If flash rust appears on exposed enamel edges or the rim, it can be easily removed with dish soap.
- Exposed enamel edges can be re-oiled from time to time with cooking oil.
Radiant white is beautiful in any kitchen, whether it’s in the form of a pan, casserole dish, sauce pan, sieve, ladle or skimmer.
