How Do you Steam Vegetables?

Many recipes you see, tell you that boil or blanch the vegetables, but for my suggestion or prefer do not boil the veggies, steam them. So that vegetables hold in the nutrients and bright the colors of my veggies are when they are done steaming.

To steam veggies, take a bowl or pot, add 1 or 2 inches of water and add your strainer to fit on top of your cooking pot.
Bring to boil the water, add veggies in the strainer, when starting the bubbles in the boiling water, cover with a cooking lid tight enough to hold in the steam. Make sure the water is not touching the bottom of your strainer.
Steam the veggies over the high-medium heat for about 8-9 minutes. Then you see the steaming veggies are soft, tender, and looks bright in color.

↣ Remove the mashed and well-mixed gravy cauliflower to a bowl and add chopped fresh chives. Add cheddar cheese and mix well by your hand or use a blender. For me, I use a few mayonnaise, if you don’t like skip it. And at last for taste add salt and pepper. All combine very well.

↣ For garnishing, I use chopped chives and crispy bacon with the remaining cheese spread over the mashed loaded cauliflower recipe. Put back into the microwave to melt the cheese, under the broiler for a few minutes. Not ready to serve hot!
