ABSTRACT:
A steam cooker having a high capacity heating element in the bottom wall of the cooker reservoir employs a body of heat conducting metal to define a shallow boiler for transferring heat to water in the reservoir from a metal sheathed electric resistant heating element extending in a generally circular groove in the bottom of the metal body with the terminal end portions of the heating element extending in generally radially overlapping relation. An annular recess formed in the top surface of the metal body has a first portion of uniform depth defined by a first substantially planar bottom wall portion and a second portion of varying depth defined by a second substantially planar bottom wall portion overlaying the overlapped end portions of the heating element and inclined with respect to the first wall portion whereby water in the water reservoir will have a greater depth above the first bottom wall portion than above the second bottom wall portion.
