STEAMING BROCCOLI - How to STEAM BROCCOLI demonstration

Facts about BROCCOLI...it's a cruciferous vegetable (such as kale and cauliflower), is an excellent source of vitamin C, folate, beta-carotene and iron!! Deronda demonstrates how fast and easy broccoli is to steam!!! Click on "SHOW MORE" below to learn how...
STEAMING BROCCOLI
Purchase broccoli that have tightly clustered florets that are dark green (often tinged with tints of purple), with no yellow spots. The stalk will firm, not rubbery. with crisply firm leaves.
Broccoli can be kelp in the refrigerator up to 4 days.
Wash and trim broccoli just before steaming. Remove the leaves, if any, and cut off the thick end of the stalk...about 1-inch from florets.
With paring knife, slice halfway through stalk, pull apart with hands. This ensures that the florets stay whole.
Peel a few outside layers of stalk away by using a vegetable peeler or paring knife. Split the halves to make quarters.
Add prepared broccoli to vegetable steamer. In a large sauce pan, over medium-high heat, add enough water to come up 1-inch on the side . Bring water to boil. Add broccoli. Cover with tightly fitted lid. Steam 6 minutes.
CAUTION...be careful when removing broccoli from steaming water.
Serve & ENJOY!!

Just moved into my first apartment, living by myself, as a mama’s boy who’s tryna learn how to cook the basics, I found this very informative. Thank you!

[@eyecomeinpeace2707]

Thank you lovely lady for your very clear tips on steaming the broccoli. I will try this tonight.

[@ozalfert2216]

I reviewed this vid and yum yum on the broccoli. I may have gone a minute longer than suggested. I didnt leave any lid ajar as I put glass steamer lid from another pot and it just fit inside this sausepan and rested on the steamer worked perfect. plus I could see exactly when it went to full steam and that when I started my timer. Talk about eating healthy and steamed to perfection,,, thanks again Deronda 😊

[@anjah.9508]

I just bought a stainless steel steaming bowl just like yours, and now I know how to use it, thanks! This was very helpful. 😀

[@enTeratainment]

THANK YOU FOR TELLING US WHICH BROCCOLI TO PICK!!!! When I go grocery shopping, I usually pick the ones from the back. Don't know if that's a good/bad thing, but I'm glad you mentioned how the broccoli is supposed to look if it ain't good. So thanks~

[@gilgamesh4710]

[@beatricefogarty1196]

My Mom made a Cold , Cooked Broccoli. After steaming it, while still warm add Sliced Garlic, Evoo, Lemon juice for couple hours at least. Then refrigerate, Delicious

[@Foods101withDeronda]

Sounds YUMMY :)

[@beatricefogarty1196]

Yes, definitely is, been eating it for over 50 years. Used to have only on Holidays, now I make it whenever I want. Need at least juice of 2 Lemons for every head of Broccoli.

[@rayfor7929]

I cut the florets smaller and it only takes about 3- 31/2 mins to cook in steam. It is best to leave the lid slightly ajar as this allows the acids that are normally in veges to go out with the steam. This way the broccoli stays bright green. Same for carrots (that are cut in thin strips to cook in the same time) which will still be bright red after cooking. After cooking add a sprinkle of lemon juice - MAGIC.

[@tymck9694]

How much water you put in pot? I lke this method thks.

Steaming broccoli is the way I like it best. Besides its many health benefits its a great boon for dieters as its loaded with fiber keeps the hunger pangs away. I like to steam a healthy portion with my eggs in the morning, except I do prefer to cut off the florets. to each his or her own.

[@pf6819]

Thanks for the demo but I was just wondering if you leave the heat on the whole time or do you turn if down or off once the steamer is added?

[@beatricefogarty1196]

I think you leave it on same temperature.

[@kirkb2286]

Great presentation. I'm one of those people who want my broccoli probably a little "overlooked". I want it tender tender tender. I'm looking for the best way to add garlic butter to it. My friends at "Chili's" get it perfect for me every time and I want to be able to get that same over the top taste,

The grit is good roughage--keeps things moving.

[@gwheads]

Freshen up your limp broccoli by cutting 1/2 of one inch off the stalk and place it in a cup of cold water until it stiffens.

[@byronchandler5000]

Hi, Deronda. Your steamed broccoli looks beautiful, just like you and your voice. What do you love about steamed veggies? Have a good day, Deronda. If those haters ain't got nothing nice to say, they shouldn't say anything AT ALL!
