Which statement about kitchen equipment is true?

• A. A Slow Cooker Is A Blender
• B. A Standard Oven Cooks Everything By Dry Heat
• C. A Compartment Steamer Works Like A Pressure Cooker
• D. A Microwave Replaces All Other Cooking Equipment

Answer: (C)

The main idea is how heat is transferred by different kitchen equipment. A compartment steamer cooks with steam in stacked compartments, so it uses moist heat to transfer heat to food. While a pressure cooker also uses steam, it does so under high pressure to raise the boiling point and cook faster; the core similarity is that both rely on steam as the heat carrier, which fits the statement more closely than the others. The slow cooker isn’t a blender, an oven doesn’t cook everything by dry heat, and a microwave can’t replace all equipment.
