How Do You Steam Broccoli And Carrots?
The best way to get all the vitamins from your vegetables is to eat them raw. Raw, cold vegetables do not always go well with the dishes you are creating for dinner. The next best method for preparing vegetables is to steam them. You can create some delicious steamed broccoli and carrots in a steamer. Pour 1 inch of water in your steamer and bring it to a boil. You will need to set your steamer’s heat to high heat. Make sure you separated your broccoli florets from the stems. You can do this with a knife. The pieces are easier to steam and eat this way. Set the broccoli and carrot pieces in the steamer basket. Sprinkle salt over the broccoli and carrots. Make sure you do not add too much salt, however, as that will spoil the dish. Place the basket in the steamer and cover. Steam the broccoli and carrots for eight to ten minutes. Choose eight minutes if you like your vegetables firm. Choose ten minutes if you prefer your vegetables to be a little on the softer side. Remove from the heat
