Vegetable Pan

 

From vegetables, delicious dishes can be prepared, such as this vegetable pan made from beans, peas, potatoes, cauliflower, carrots and many fresh herbs. In the different national cuisines, there are many varied recipes for using vegetables. The preparation of these dishes is often not difficult and requires no special skill. Only fresh or frozen vegetable varieties should be used. It has been found that frozen vegetables contain as many vitamins as fresh vegetables. Especially for working people with limited time, frozen vegetables are the faster option.

Gently prepare vegetables

Especially seasonal vegetables can also be purchased at the weekly market and processed afterwards. Here one finds partly fresh vegetable products from the region or from organic farming. The variety is usually as large as in the supermarket. Important are fresh or frozen vegetables and vegetable products that contain all important vitamins and nutrients. In addition, the vegetables should be prepared very gently so that all contained vitamins do not get lost. Especially suitable are special steamers or steam inserts for cooking pots. With this preparation method, the vegetables are steamed in hot steam, so that a large part of all existing vitamins is preserved, which would otherwise be lost during cooking.
