Default Help! Got a brand new Bamboo Steamer Thingy - how do I use it?

"100% Hand Made Bamboo Steamer is a kind of Chinese traditional
cooker, with a history of two thousand years. It is very airtight,
with special fragrance of bamboo. It is part of Chinese diet culture
and made of high quality bamboo by hand. It keeps original natural
style and durable. There are various sizes suiting for families and
restaurants."

That's what it says on the box. That's ALL it says on the box! There
are no instructions. I have an idea of how it works, I have a choice
of three stove top pans that it fits - a new 10 inch stir fry "wok"
with a partly flat bottom and a similar well used stir fry pan 12
inches in diameter, plus a 6+ quart stainless steel Dutch oven. The
steamer has two separate trays and a lid and is 10 inches in diameter.

Any of youse guys who have one and use it give me some tips?
Simmering water? Boiling water? How deep? Food directly on the bamboo?
On a plate? Peeking or no-peeking? Et cetera . . .

Thank you honorable friend and Asian cooking expert.
