Cooking Green Vegetables

If you prefer to cook your vegetables you should know how to test them to be sure they are neither undercooked or overcooked.

Steam or boil until your greens are tender but still a little crispy. After about 4 minutes of cooking test them by piercing a small piece with the tip of a sharp knife, or take a bite and if it resists slightly then they are ready. To stop cooking as well as maintain their color, rinse with cold water immediately after draining.
