Best Answer

Steaming food is a method of cooking. You can use a food steamer or a pan of boiling water with a rack of some kind over the pan. You place the food directly over the steam and allow it to cook. Steamed foods retain their flavor and nutrients and are usually cooked until it is just done; not until it's so done it's soft or mushy.
