That vertical format lets the more fibrous lower stalks sit closer to the boiling water while the tender tips cook more gently in the steam above. It is a specialty vessel, but for a household that treats asparagus season as an annual ritual, the design has a practical reason to exist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Specialty cookware should earn its cupboard space through a real ritual. If asparagus is something you wait for every spring, a tall steamer makes sense because it respects the difference between the stalk and the tip. If you cook it twice a year, borrow one. If you cook it constantly in season, this is the proper tool.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-Mrs. Mayfair\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18\/10 stainless steel body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable cooking insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTempered glass lid with stainless steel rim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTall form designed for upright asparagus steaming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for white or green asparagus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare \u0026amp; Ownership\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWash before first use.
