Find a deep pan and a plate that will fit inside it. Next, crumble up aluminum foil into balls (3 to 4 balls) and place on the bottom of the pan. Then place your plate on top of the aluminum balls with your prepared scallops. Carefully pour water around the plate. Put the lid on and steam away.   If using a wok, use 2 chopsticks and place them in the wok crossed at the bottom of the wok. Place the plate with scallops on top of the chopsticks. Carefully pour water around the plate. Put the lid on and steam away. Check out our recipe for Asian Steamed Fish (Ultimate Guide & Video) to learn more ideas on how to steam without a steamer.
