What material is a good product for steaming basket cloth? There are many types of steaming basket cloth, and each type has different usage methods and effects. Generally, traditional steamer cloths are made of cloth.
The disadvantage of this type of mat is that it cannot be reused repeatedly and cannot be used for more than 5 hours at a time, otherwise the steamer cloth will breed bacteria.
There are cloth mats and straw mats for steamers. There is also a silicone mat. These mats can be used to steam Mantou or steamed buns at home. The cloth mat is not as breathable as straw mats. However, compared to other products, grass mats are relatively simple to use and have a low cost. It's just that replacement and cleaning are more complicated.
Grass mats are a product with good breathability. But the lifespan and time of use are also relatively short, and cannot be used for a long time. Once damaged, it cannot be used again, and it is also relatively easy for the flour at the bottom of the bun to stick.
The mat made of silicone material is relatively environmentally friendly, and the material used for silicone is also food grade silicone that has passed strict standards. This mat is highly breathable and durable, and its chemical substances are also stable. It can also be used under high temperature and ultra-high temperature, and it will not stick flour or Mantou.
Cleaning is very convenient and has completely replaced traditional steamer cloth. Silicone pads made of silicone material can not only be used to make silicone steamer pads, but also to make a series of pads such as silicone baking pads and silicone kneading pads.
