Steaming is done in tightly woven wicker steamers (very similar to modern ones) [*]steamers and kettles are mainly in the homes of older members of the community and those with families (who often borrow them from relatives until their children are older). Kettles are handed down through families, but steamers are often self-made. Those who don't have kettles do their cooking at a communal cooking hollow in the central tree, taking turns with shared kettles and other commodities. [/list] [/hider]
