Uh, nope. Steaming veggies "keeps taste" in the same way embalming a corpse "keeps appearance." Sure, it tastes a little bit like it did when it was raw...minus all the parts that makes it actually taste good when it's raw.

But yeah, IA, boiling is....really terrible. Yes. Never boil vegetables if you can help it. I didn't even think to mention that. Speaking of which, if you boil potatoes, always boil them with the skins on, only take the skins off after boiling. That way they keep more nutrition.

And don't stir-fry in a fuckload of oil. Do people really stir-fry in enough oil to "add fat"? Perhaps other people understand the term "stir-fry" differently than I. I just mean in enough oil to let the veggies cook properly -- a tablespoon, maybe less.

nayrt - No. Steaming isn't the most flavorful way to cook vegetables, but they don't have to taste terrible unless you're doing it wrong.


Do people really stir-fry in enough oil to "add fat"?

Bit of a silly question. Stir-frying in ANY amount of oil adds fat. Hopefully not much, but using a little bit of oil is still adding fat to the dish.
