New in the Market: Steam Gourmet

by Jo-Ann Heslin, MA, RD, CDN on April 20, 2015 · 0 comments

We love to try new foods. Some are great. Some don’t measure up and some become staples in our kitchen. See what you think.

SO_SteamGourmet-300Simply Organic recently launched Steam Gourmet, steam-in-parchment meal kits. These kits help people use a French style of cooking called “en papillote.” Each Steam Gourmet kit contains two seasoning packets and two parchment bags, which is enough to make 4 servings.

Steam Gourmet is available in four varieties.

 

 

Garlic Herb Chicken

Sesame Ginger Salmon

Cajun Chicken

Paprika Chicken

The cook simply sprinkles the seasoning packet over meat, fish or poultry, then places it in the bag, folds the bag shut, and places the bag on a baking pan. In 20 to 40 minutes (depending on what is being cooked) you have a seasoned, moist dinner entrée. We tried Steam Gourmet with boneless pork chops, chicken cutlets and salmon. All worked equally well. The seasoning packet adds minimal calories to each serving, little or no fat, and a moderate amount of sodium. All the varieties are certified USDA organic and kosher (KSA). The company website offers many interesting recipe ideas for Steam Gourmet.

The Simply Organic SO1% Fund, gives a percent of sales to a variety of programs in the US and abroad to support organic agriculture through research, education and grower development.
