What is a Steaming Plate for Seiro?

A steaming plate is a convenient tool used when using a seiro with pots other than a wok. Place it between the pot and the seiro.
This page is for the “Steaming Plate” only. *The seiro is sold separately.
Even if you don’t have a pot that perfectly matches your seiro, you can still enjoy seiro-style cooking with your existing pot by using a steaming plate.
The steaming plate stabilizes the seiro and increases the amount of boiling water, enabling effective steaming. It also prevents scorching of the seiro and extends its life.
How to Use a Seiro with a Steaming Plate
A steaming plate significantly improves the usability of a seiro. *Be careful when handling, as it gets very hot during use.

Available Sizes
Steaming Plate and Pot Combinations

Single-handle pot (19cm dia) + Steaming Plate 33cm + Seiro 24cm

Double-handle pot (29cm dia) + Steaming Plate 33cm + Seiro 24cm
Note: Pots That Are Not Compatible

If the pot handles interfere, the plate won’t sit flat. Steam will escape, and the seiro will tilt.

Pots with spouts may allow steam to escape, making steaming less effective.
Q&A
Is it dangerous to use a seiro without a steaming plate?
As long as direct heat doesn't touch the seiro, it’s not dangerous. However, the bottom may get scorched, so we recommend using a steaming plate.
How should I clean the steaming plate?
Wash thoroughly with a sponge and mild detergent. Do not use steel wool or bleach, as these may corrode the aluminum.
Is it dishwasher-safe?
We recommend hand washing, as dishwashers may cause unintended scratches.
Does the steaming plate get hot?
Yes, especially immediately after steaming. Please avoid touching it directly.
