Tips
How to Cook Without Losing Vitamins and Minerals
With a steamer you can cook vegetables and small pieces of meat and fish without adding
any fat. This form of cooking will also preserve vitamins and minerals. 35% of the
vitamins and minerals are lost in the water when boiling vegetables. It is therefore a good
idea to keep the water once the vegetables have been cooked and then mix it back into
the purée to retain the vitamins and minerals and to obtain a smoother texture.
