Can you explain something from a scientific point of view to me?

Date: July 26, 2015 12:02AM I like cauliflower raw just fine but I rarely eat broccoli raw. I am sure many people are with me on this because it's pretty tough stuff. I am not adverse to it but I have always found myself steaming it rather than eating it heat-free.
So sometimes I am adding it to other stuff (stir-fry, for instance) and want it tender beforehand. I found that steaming takes forever and it seems to go from green to greyish-green by the time it's soft enough to use. And yet I started blanching it (cooking it in boiling water for several minutes, which is more like boiling it) and yet it retains its nice green color! My steam water would be deep green when I tossed it, too! So it makes no sense. Re: Can you explain something from a scientific point of view to me? Posted by:

Blending may not be optimal but it helps eat some rich and tough veggies. Re: Can you explain something from a scientific point of view to me?
