Abstract
A steamer pot assembly includes a pot, a steamer basket and a lid. The pot has a lip bounded by an upstanding flange at its upper end. The steamer basket is perforated and fits within the pot; it has a lip which rests on the pot lip. The steamer basket has two bails, each having two ends pivotally connected to the basket, each end being spaced from the adjacent end of the other bail a short distance. Each bail has two arcuate legs, connected by an inverted U-shaped connector portion which rests on the basket lip, inwardly of the outer edge thereof, leaving a space between it and the flange of the pot to receive the lower edge of the lid.
