Thai Sticky rice steaming pot and basket

Just what you need to make large batches of perfect sticky rice. Very trustworthy seller. First pot arrived very dented up from its journey and she immediately sent a replacement. This one was perfect. Thank you!

When I married a Thai in 1973 She brought this type of pot and five baskets to the states with her. Neither of us expected to find these things in America but in those days we had to drive 100 miles to buy fish sauce. Now Thai restaurants are everywhere, Thai food is in ordinary supermarkets and lots of people are learning to cook Thai. Thais are learning to cook differently, too. I've seen videos by Thais showing how to make sticky rice in the microwave or a rice steamer. I've tried both, the microwave way several times, and the results were not like the sticky rice I have known for decades. I bought myself a new pot and basket via Amazon and it works a charm. I'm now again making sticky rice as it's supposed to be -- I am quite satisfied. BTW I don't use any cloth. The wife never did, I never saw such in Thailand when I was there and I'm doing fine without it. Dropping the bottom of the basket into water to soak loosens any stuck rice but there's very little of that. The wife brought five baskets because she knew they don't last like the pot. Five was enough for years but they'd eventually come apart at the bottom. I suppose a basket lasted us about a year or two. We didn't eat sticky rice all the time. I consider this pot and basket to be required for proper Thai / Lao sticky rice.

This is large. Large pot and basket. Works perfect.

Nice products nice price

Made sticky rice. Nothing like a bamboo basket to make it in. It was just as I expected and would buy again from this site. Great price also. Shipped quick.

Item does come from Thailand. The seller gave me a heads up that the product would be delayed in customs, but it did arrive safely to me in the US. It is a nice small rice basket. I had some in the past and the other sticky rice cooker baskets are big. This one is a cute size which would make it easier to clean. I highly recommend it.

This is junk and the basket I received wouldn't even conform to the shape of the aluminum pot correctly

We've used this several times now and it steams our sticky rice perfectly. You've got to clean it up as soon as it cools to where you can touch the basket and the rice remains are still soft.
