> steam vegetables are disgusting! Gee. Steamed veges (potatoes, corn, broccoli, beans, carrots, brussel sprouts etc) with a lil vegan butter, salt, and herbs

  Lightly steamed (retaining crunch, flavour and nutrients), plus melted butter (in moderation) and salt is my go-to as well. For instant pots, there is even a table on how many minutes each type of vegetable should be correctly steamed. That makes all the difference.

  :) oops… should had put the disclaimer that it’s a personal opinion. I just hear some people saying “I don’t like vegetables” and often my question is “how have you had them?”

    You probably mean steamed to death. if you blanch them, they mostly taste really good. of course, don't blanch potatos or something like that - but broccoli is a good example. Most people cook them until they are soft, but a short blanch is usually enough.

      They certainly meant steamed to something. Blanching isn't steaming.
