    Get one of these cheap thingies to steam food

    Chop the potatos evenly, and cook them way faster without loosing any sugars wasted in the cooking water, nor hydrating too much the potatoes (very important if you are making gnocci)

      I do have one of those things, but it's pretty small for the amount of potatoes I usually cook- pretty sure I could only fit like three potatoes in mine.

        I don't use it like in the picture, mine has little legs, so I get a big pot where it fits down to the bottom, fill with water till it almost reaches the holes and pile on two kg of diced potatoes on it with a lid on top

          The legs on mine are so flimsy I fear they would snap under a heavier load but I might give it a go. How long do you steam your potatoes for?

            Uh, till the top ones are done, ¿15 min of full on steam?
