Do Steamed Vegetables Taste Better?
From a chef’s perspective, cooking really is done in two ways, moist heat and dry heat. With regard to moist heat the most beneficial is steam. It is preferable for several reasons. The first is that steamed foods stay extraordinarily moist and tender. The second is that steamed foods do not lose much of their original volume through the shrinkage that typically occurs in dry-heat cooking methods. Flavor and food texture are the two key components in determining taste. We think Steam Cuisine scores a ten in both categories!
