Guest guest Report post Posted June 7, 2004 Why does cooked vegetable always look so worn-out? You're overcooking your veggies, Alexandra. Steam, saute, stir-fry or roast until you can get a fork in them but they're not mushy ('tender crisp'). Where in Europe are you? I'm itching to travel again, lol. Good luck w/the veggies!

You know what the doctors say: " Eat less meat, eat more vegetables! " In this connection allow me one question: Why does cooked vegetable always look so worn-out? You buy it, bring it home and it looks so wonderful, so fresh. Then you cook it. What am I doing wrong? Alexandra Friends. Fun.
