Talk to me about steaming veg

2 replies

I bought my 3 tier, pretty big steamer. I did broccoli florets tonight for 2 and they were a bit over done at 15 minutes so I plan cutting back to about 12.

My question is this. If the thing is full of carrots and broccoli for dinner at Christmas should it still run for 12-15 minutes or longer?

The carrots are battons if it makes a difference.

I but the 'more solid' veg in the bottom tier so that they get the most steam.. Yes I'd leave carrots & broccoli 15 min

Hope that helps!

Yes, it does. Thanks. I will do carrots at the bottom and other veg on top. Will run for 12 and check.
