FAQs

What is the exact capacity of the pudding basin?

The basin has a capacity of 1.14 liters, which is equivalent to 2 UK pints.

Is the plastic safe for use with food?

Yes, the basin is made from BPA-free, food-safe plastic.

Can I use this basin in an oven?

No, this basin is not designed for oven use. It is safe for microwaves, pressure cookers, slow cookers, and steamers.

How does the clip-on lid work?

The innovative clip-on lid is designed to securely fit the basin and allows excess steam and air to escape during the cooking process, helping to ensure optimal results.

Can I freeze puddings made in this basin?

Yes, the basin is freezer safe, allowing you to store prepared batter or cooked puddings.

How do I ensure my steamed pudding cooks evenly?

Ensure the basin is filled no more than two-thirds full, the lid is securely attached allowing steam to escape, and that you are using the correct cooking time and method as per your recipe.

What is the recommended way to clean the basin?

The basin is dishwasher safe for convenient cleaning. You can also wash it by hand with warm, soapy water.

Troubleshooting

Pudding is dense or heavy

Ensure the lid's steam vents are not blocked and that it is properly secured. Check that the cooking time and liquid levels are appropriate for your chosen cooking method.

Basin feels sticky or retains odors

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn residue, a paste of baking soda and water can be used as a gentle abrasive. Ensure the basin is completely dry before storing.

Lid is difficult to clip on

Check for any debris around the rim of the basin or the lid. Ensure the lid is aligned correctly before applying pressure. If the plastic feels stiff, a brief soak in warm water can make it more pliable.
