Stainless Steel Round Steamer and Cooling Rack – Pot Trivet and Air Fryer Rack for Baking and Canning
This single round rack, standing on short legs, serves as a steamer, a cooling surface, a baking trivet, and a canning aid. The stainless steel construction is rust‑resistant and robust, with a polished finish that is soft to the touch and free of burrs. The legs are integrated into the frame, lifting the rack by just under three inches from the pot floor — an ideal height for boiling water to sit beneath while food is steamed above. The rack’s diameter is tailored to fit standard pressure cookers, Dutch ovens, and air fryer baskets.
- Heat compatibility: Oven‑safe to high temperatures, the rack can be used for roasting poultry, baking potatoes, or as a trivet for a hot casserole dish. It can also be placed inside a pressure cooker to lift a bowl or plate off the base.
- Canning: The rack fits the bottom of many water‑bath canners, supporting jars of preserves and allowing boiling water to circulate underneath for safe, even processing.
- Cooling: After baking, the rack allows air to flow around cakes and cookies, preventing a soggy base.
- Cleaning: Dishwasher safe and easy to hand‑wash. A soft brush removes any trapped food. Dry thoroughly to maintain the mirror finish.
The rack is lightweight but sturdy. It can be stored flat in a drawer or hung from a hook. As with any stainless steel product, exposure to salt or harsh detergents should be followed by prompt rinsing. Dimensions are measured by hand, and a minor variance is possible. This rack is a single, multi‑purpose tool that earns its place in a well‑equipped kitchen.
