Can you cook potatoes and carrots in the same pan?

Culinary art needs to be refined. It takes a lot of time for theory and practice. No wonder some chefs are engaged only in beautiful cutting of products, and others specialize in seasonings and additives.

Of course, a good cook should understand how cooking works in a comprehensive way. How products are combined with each other, how to cook them correctly, fry, bake, stew.

If you think that there are no subtleties in these processes, you are deeply mistaken. Even a hard-boiled egg can be cooked incorrectly. In this article, we will try to touch upon the most common mistakes when cooking vegetables, which are made not only by housewives, but also by experienced cooks.

So, first we will talk about the typical mistakes when cooking frozen vegetables.

Freeze vegetables before cooking
When defrosting vegetables, all the water in them flows out. This is very bad for their texture and appearance. For example, vegetables rich in fiber, such as peppers, broccoli, carrots, when defrosted, turn into puree and become almost inedible.

How to Freeze Your Vegetables Freezing has long proven to be a reliable way to keep food fresh for months to come. How to freeze vegetables so that they do not lose their original taste, color, aroma and, most importantly, benefit? IA "Express-News" has prepared several recommendations. How to properly freeze vegetables 1. Before freezing, you need to thoroughly wash, dry and cut vegetables. This is perhaps the most troublesome stage of the process, especially if you are harvesting large quantities. It is better to divide the products into several small portions, with the calculation of one portion for the preparation of one dish. 2. Buy special packages in the store for freezing. They are sealed and have a convenient valve to close. You can do with ordinary packages, but tie them tightly to avoid foreign smells. Suitable plastic containers with a lid, foil or food film. 3. How to freeze vegetables in the bag seems clear. But there's an important nuance. When "wholesale" freezing should not put in the freezer immediately all stocks. From this, the temperature in the chamber can rise sharply, and some products will simply spoil. Try to freeze no more than a kilogram of vegetables per 8 liters of freezer volume per day. Keep in mind that you can freeze both certain types of vegetables and their mixtures. For example, some prefer to keep in the freezer already grated mixture of onions and carrots for refilling, others store Bulgarian pepper whole, zucchini, sliced in circles or eggplant cubes. There are other options, how to freeze vegetables, recipes we will provide, and you - experiment ????????????????????

You can thaw before cooking except that corn in the cobs. To prepare it well, just let it thaw a little and use it boldly.

Use them in the wrong recipe
Frozen vegetables feel best in casseroles, soups and other multi-component dishes. This masks their texture and unsaturated taste.

Another mistake is to mix fresh vegetables and frost in one dish. Trust me, it won't end well for a dish.

Failure to comply with cooking time
Most vegetables are blanched before freezing. This means that they undergo rapid processing with steam or boiling water to preserve the beautiful color of the product and improve its taste.

Froze around 3lbs of carrots today. Can't wait to throw them into some soup this winter! There are still more growing, so I'll be at it again in a couple of weeks. I love fresh carrots and dip. #carrots #freezevegetables #growyourown #wintersoups #keto

In order not to get confused in the time of cooking vegetables, we advise you to just carefully study the instructions on the package.

Microwave cooking

Roast, bake, cook vegetables, after all. But microwave cooking is not the best choice for them.

No residue
If after cooking you have some vegetables in the bag, carefully fold the package so that there is no excess air in it, and shove it back into the freezer.

If you just throw the package on the old place, the moisture in the air will settle on the surface of the vegetables, which will lead to their icing. Nothing deadly, but the color and texture will spoil.

Now let’s move from proper cooking of frozen vegetables to competent cooking of vegetables in general.

Peeling
In most cases, we somehow used to remove the skin from vegetables. But it is a good source of antioxidants and fiber. Moreover, with it, the vegetable holds a more elastic texture and does not lose its taste at all.

? Seedling dates? Each plant for seedlings has a certain deadline and they are full on the Internet, I will not even write them to myself. Someone sticks to them, I don't. Why? Because while I only dream of a normal greenhouse, which means I will plant in the open ground. And now the question, if any of you know when the summer will come this year, write in the comments will be grateful? Dada, we have a risk farming zone and snow in June is easy. So, ooh, the main crops I'm going to have in March, on the principle that what's sown later, will grow faster? But I admit, itchy hands? nothing helps. No cucumbers or tomatoes on which the fruit is about to ripen. No picking petunias and cropping again... Even micro-greens! Nothing! Over. Today, quickly threw pepper and zucchini seeds into the rollers ? I love this way of sprouting seeds! I'll write about him separately. It's simple. We're waiting for the first settlers in the big pots? If everything is clear with pepper, they can bear fruit on the window, then with zucchini this is a pure experiment? Will it be interesting to see what grows? Waiting for your answers, just talking to yourself is such a fun thing? #seeds2020 #seedshoppers #zucchini #Semko #seeds #gardentown #dacha #summer2020

Zucchini, beets, carrots and even potatoes are enough to rub the hard side of the sponge and rinse well in running water.

Pan
To prepare vegetables, you need to use the right pan. Deep, with high sides is suitable only for long extinguishing, because moisture from vegetables will evaporate on the inside of the walls and constantly roll back.

The ideal frying pan is flat, with small sides. The deep woks that the Chinese use are good for fast roasting over high heat and are not suitable for every kitchen.

Grillboard
If you like vegetables cooked on a special board with grooves, do not be afraid to use vegetable oil.

Just lubricate them with these very grooves and vegetables will remain juicy and tasty. Vegetables themselves are not recommended to cover with oil: they will burn faster in places of touch with the surface of the board.

Cooking vegetables
First, we advise you to steam vegetables more often, rather than cook them. This will preserve most of the vitamins and texture of the product.

For the lazy ones who own a steam cooker, he threw groceries and went to mind his own business. The main thing is that all products are as simple as possible, for which heat treatment is enough, in order to eat them.

Secondly, to be clear, cookNo one can. It's individual. Sweet potatoes are cooked for 30 minutes, cauliflower - 8, and beets need more than 40 minutes. Potatoes with carrots, fortunately, can be cooked together, otherwise your favorite salads would be cooked for a very long time!

Of course, all the subtleties of cooking in one article we can not fit. However, a few useful things, we hope you will take note. By the way, if you're feeling insecure when you're baking vegetables, we have something interesting for you. In the meantime, we wish you new heights in the culinary business and even more successful dishes, success!
