[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stupid question: for those of you that steam broccoli in the microwave. Assuming I have small bowl of broccoli florets. How much water do I add and how long do u microwave them for. I want them cooked but not mushy. [/quote] Don’t do it! Suggest cooking in olive oil for 3-4 min, then adding salt, pepper, and a few tablespoons of water. Cover to steam for another 3-5 min. So much better. [/quote] The PP who mentioned steam-in-a-bag isn't using the stove, though. I got the sense that she was trying to shorten cooking time and she said toaster oven. I would roast broccoli for closer to 20 minutes at 400 and she said 10. Seems like a decent plan, particularly if you're not using a stove to do the rest of the cooking.[/quote]
