ДЇinally here are some meals that I like cooking in the pressure cooker: Solution 2: Put the sticking ingredient on top of the others or put it into a steaming basket. Solution 1: Use hot water and mix well before closing the lid turn down the heat as soon as posiible. Some ingredients stick to the bottom of the pan.Experiment with little water and check every five minutes by opening the lid. The meal is cooked but itвЂ™s too watery: Solution: Some ingredients suck the water more then others.Solution: Experiment, open the lid every five minutes to check until you find the right duration. The red indicator remains on for 10 minutes or so and the cooking continues more slowly. Another technique is to turn off the heat without opening the valve.If there is a lot of water inside the cooker, you need to put it under running water instead of opening the valve because the hot water may spit out of the valve.When the red indicator disappears you can open the lid safely. Turn off the heat and open the valve to evacuate the vapor.Start timing and progressively turn the heat down without loosing the hissing sound.Bring to boil when the pressure is full, the excess steam evacuates by creating a hissing noise.Make sure the lid is clicked into place turn the valve into closed (cooking) position.Put at least one glass of water to create steam.I experiment a lot with a pressure cooker and there is nothing to be scared of: If you are new to startcooking, or are a regular visitor here, please consider subscribing for free. P.S.: If youвЂ™re a huge broccoli fan, try out chicken and broccoli stir fry recipe! Sprinkle on some salt and pepper andвЂ¦Enjoy! Broccoli will retain its bright green color, crisp tenderness and sweetness if you cook it just until a fork can pierce the stalk. With a fork stab the broccoli to check to see if it is cooked to your liking.

Be sure to leave a steam vent in the corner. Put the florets in the dish in a single layer.ДЇor ВЅ pound of broccoli, add 1 Tablespoon of water.Д¬over with plastic wrap. Use a dish that is just big enough to hold the broccoli. If the individual florets are fairly large, they can be sliced in half lengthwise to make smaller pieces.Д¬ooking Broccoli Florets in the MicrowaveДЄlways start with a microwave safe dish. Holding the strips together, cut the stalk crosswise to the desired size.ДЇinish trimming the broccoli by cutting each floret off the head, leaving a little stalk on each cluster. If you are using the stalk, peel the tough outer layer using a vegetable peeler or a knife. Trim off just the end of each stalk, leaving about 2 inches below the florets. Trim off any leaves that are attached to the stalk. Wash, donвЂ™t soak, broccoli in cool running water just before preparing. I use both the stalk and the floret for stir-fry, but only the floret as a vegetable side dish.ДЇor an ordinary dinner at home, I like to microwave broccoli just to the point where it is almost cooked and then add salt and pepper. Also be sure not to overcook broccoli or it will not only turn to mush, but will develop into a very unappealing shade of green. Given fresh broccoli will cook in just a few minutes there is no point in making enough for leftovers. Make only what you are going to eat for dinner. You can store broccoli in the fridge, in an open plastic bag, for up to three days, but the vitamin content will diminish the longer you leave it.Д«roccoli can be blanched (boiled in a small amount of water), microwaved (with almost no water), steamed (on a rack above simmering water), or stir-fried. Try and buy your broccoli just before you need it. If the florets are enlarged, opened, yellowish-green or wilted, then the broccoli is not fresh. The buds should be dark green and may have a purplish tint to the edge. When buying broccoli look for firm, compact clusters of small flower buds (florets). Unlike the former President, I do like broccoli and with a recent stir-fry dish have even begun to convert my husband, so itвЂ™s not banned in our household! And IвЂ™m President of the United States and IвЂ™m not going to eat any more broccoli.вЂќ And I havenвЂ™t liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it.
