    My mom was a Master Food Preserver and Master Gardener. She grew food which she taught my younger brother and me to preserve. She passed last year and my brother passed 2 months ago. She had (I'm sure it's in the basement somewhere) a steam juicer but I recently found one for $5.00 at a yard sale, right before what would've been my brother's 35th birthday. For his birthday, I remembered him by getting some red currants from our bush out of the freezer, and some wild blackberries we picked last summer out of the freezer, too. I juiced them both separately in my "new" steam juicer and made jellies with both. They turned out perfect. I'd never attempted either on the own before, although I watched my mom and helped, for most of my life. Miss you and love you Mom and James.

    A most excellent way to preserve berries. Juice the berries, then work the pulp. You can make cranberry juice, cranberry pulp juice, cranberry pulp (no additives) that is real cranberry - not the canned thanksgiving jello. You can make condensed juices into syrups. Yes, steam blanching vegs, then ice bath, and ziplock baggy freeze the items - and have them for a very long time with full calorie/nutrition vegs. Even doing sugar maple, birch sap into sugars and syrups. Can always steam and preserve your fruits (peaches, apricots ... ) and citrus into preserves, all fruits, jams, jellies. Can even steam meats (steam cooking) or meat jerkies and steam cook sterilize, then allow to dry and they will be totally cooked and safe. Can steam pumpkins, squash, gourds in whole fashion, and have a totally cooked item for a family dinner meal. In a different way than a pressure cooker, you can also make steamed pasta, and have a garden and seafood ambundanza smorgasbord. The steam cooks the whole potatoes, corn on the cob, vegs, squash, celery, carrots, turnips, beets, cauliflower, broccoli, garlic, onions, ... and any fish, crab, lobster, crayfish, whole shell clams, whole shell oysters, mussels, .... With the pasta in the bottom of the collander collects all the seafood and vegs drippings. Put in a lower bread pan for steaming. Open up and pour on the butter over the whole food soaking into the pasta. Pull out the food onto the serving dishes. Pour butter onto the fresh bread slices (with garlic). Pur the pasta on the dinner plates. Add cream onto the pasta, and put the food onto the pasta. Enjoy the best of life.

      @@melodytenisch6232 If you truly have a big social (or church social) then making steamed pasta is the easiest. Steam opens up all the starch (and gluten) of the wheat, while ONLY accepting as much steam water as it can handle. Thusly, you don't end up with (super)saturated pasta, and gooey pasta, or pasta that is boiled, drowned, and falling apart. Steaming is the only way. Then toss with olive oil or butter, and making al dente pasta, or other pasta and it truly is the best. Screw the hot boiling pot. Let the steam do all the steaming - versus a boiling pot and you doing all the needless stirring.
      If you also have old hard bread, then steamed it for a little - and it will be all nice and fresh again. Making bread in a steam juicer (with no pressure like a pressure cooker) then buttering or (olive) oil the bread pan, and egg whiting and crossing the bread, you come out with some serious toasty and crisp bread. Put in room temp buns, bread rolls, braided rolls, with oil, butter, or egg white covering, and you can also get toasty crisp bread - hot from the steam.
      One of the best options (as well as using a microwave) is whole corn cob (shucked or not !) and the steaming expands the corn cob, making all the kernels detach from each other, the corn tassles easily pull away, the kernels are properly steamed, and with the now larger cobb, eating the kernels dunked in butter, make for the most delicious sweet corn chow down.
      Making steamed and condensed onions and garlic. Instead of cooking and caramelizing onions in a pan that are all oily - steaming them opens up all their cells, excess juices (and the high sulfur allicin content). The onions and garlic become soft - but with proper timing (and allowing to cool) you can have soft (not mushy gooey) onions and garlic. This onion and garlic can be pushed into a paste, or then tossed into any garden salad for a softer onion and garlic taste. Adding any butter and oil into the paste, you can then make fabulous onion and garlic buttered bread. Even making steamed onion flowers (without all the excess bread crumbs and deep frying oils, then tossing with an herbed butter or olive oil, and you have a very delightful munch-a-bunch.
      Steaming mushrooms (vs frying and gooing them with oil) you express the majority of water, but keep all the mushroom vitamins and minerals - and meaty taste for an easier chew - instead of a rubbery and oily mushroom - or dry sliced mushroom salads. One can THEN, use any herbed (or onion-garlic) butter or oil, even blender into an emulsion for pouring over steaks (or salads). Even making fabulous and hearty onion-garlic and mushroom French onion soup is a real deal. Expect all the pigs in the neighborhood to come and squeal for some of the food. Deliciouso.

With goodly hot and thick (make thicker with less water) Better Than Bouillion soup (beef, chicken, pork, or vegetable products), red wine, olive oil, and fully sauce down the upward-facing veg halves in the steamer collander. Can even pour in hot sweet cream butter or cream (!) betweeen the layers/leaves. Steam the product with bouillon, red wine, and olive oil in the bottom. Pull out the steamed cabbage and onions and place into large soup bowls. Pour in the hot thick (salty) bouillion for some really delightful food as John-French onion soup or cabbage soup. Pile on the buttered-and baked panko bread crumbs on top (not bread cubes, or French bread onion soup). Heavily shave or grate swiss, gruyere, provolone (or parmesan et al) hard cheese onto the halves and crumbs. Crush dried herb flakes - and add fresh (basil !) onto the cheese (Basil LOVES cheese and dairy products). Can thicken the sauce with even more butter or cream drizzled all over the top. A full meal deal that will never have any leftovers.
      The same product can be made with STEAMED corned beef, cabbage halves, onions, spuds/vegs, and medium-beer bouillon stock.
      My great aunt (pre-WW II German nobility, American immigrant post-war) made the most fabulous sweet cabbage. Boil and drain water for 3 times. Removes all the sulfur taste - while holding the cabbage texture. Cut down and separate leaves and add in (minimalist) butter, salt, and pepper. Make baked onion and potato halves. A separate meat side dish - and you will eat like a pig !!! The same steaming process can deal with de-sulphuring the allicin vegs and making delicious potatoes.
      Steaming opens up the cellular walls, but also helps in breaking down the long-chain starches into small-chain sugars, making less starchy (hard, dry, and tough) spuds into (juicy, tender, and sweet) taters. The same can be done with afternoon-harvested corn cobs. Afternoon/evening harvested cobs have the highest starch content. Early morning corn has the overnight processed sugars - not converted to starches later in the day. Steaming the corn cobs also further sweetens them.
      A steamer juicer and a small pressure cooker is all that most people really need - and those cast iron cookware.

    I love my Steam Juicer! Yesterday, I did up applesauce in it. I used my little hand crank thing that cores, peels and slices the apples. I put the apples into the colander section, and steamed them about an hour. Got almost 2 quarts of juice, and some nice thick applesauce, that I added a little sugar and cinnamon into, heated back up and canned. After that, I put the cores and peels (I had them in water and citric acid, so they would not brown) and juiced them up. I have done grape juice, raspberry juice (made up awesome jelly), peaches. Going to try your way of doing chicken in it soon.

    How do you know how much fruit to put in the bottom versus how much juice you're going to get out of each product?. I tried making apricot juice and I threw about 30 apricots into the top and based on the fact that you got 44 pines from your grapes, I don't think I utilize the apricots so they're fullest potential. With regards to making juice. How do you know when you've exhausted the fruit and it's no longer going to release anything in order to make proper juice?.
