Great tips. I also love soy sauce, miso, marmite, cocoa, kelp granules, or mushroom powder (you can literally just put dehydrated mushrooms in a spice grinder for this) for "meaty" veggies. Especially great when cooked on high heats and nearly scorched! Miso and starchy legumes like chickpeas are also especially fantastic for developing a rich fond for a pan sauce.

Why does no one ever mention the wattage of their microwave in recipes? It makes such a *_huge_* difference in the result! Our new microwave is 200 watts stronger than the old one, so I have to reduce both the time and the power setting to get the same results we're accustomed to. Meanwhile, my mom explodes her soup every day because she won't change a thing when heating it.

For the peels and the seeds, they can be used to make vegetable stock and then strained out. For the remaining squash, I would chop into 1" pieces and roast the next day to add to a salad. If you have the energy, you can even soak the seeds and pulp in water to remove the seeds and then toss them with a little olive oil and salt and then toast in a 350 oven until browned. Then you can use those toasted seeds as a garnish for the salad. Or you could make a super easy creamy carrot/squash soup. Sweat onions, carrot, and garlic, maybe add some ginger, coriander, and/or turmeric, add the squash and some broth or water, cook until tender. Add a little cream or coconut milk (if you want) and then blend until smooth. I love using the instant pot for that sort of thing. Thanks for watching!

Thanks very much! My friend, Dan Souza, did a great video on mushrooms that’s worth checking out - it’s called “why you can’t overcook mushrooms”. My personal method is to wash well, halve or quarter. Heat olive oil in skillet, add mushrooms and salt, cook, covered, until they release their liquid (there can be a load - it’s getting rid of this that really concentrates the flavor). Uncover and cook until well browned. Then clear a space, add minced garlic and a little more oil. Cook for another 2-3 mins. Stir in a splash of soy sauce. That’s my go-to method for most of my mushroom recipes - I’m planning a chicken and mushroom pot pie episode in the fall.

I've roasted most of my vegetables for the past few years, but have always struggled with roasting cauliflower, with cauliflower tending to toughen after cooling overnight, when using a boiler. Next time, I'll partition the cauliflower as usual, opting to microwave before (or after) partitioning the head, then subsequently briefly boiling. Microwaving (or partially steaming) prior to boiling, is likely key. I'll likely also experiment using a rub of olive oil and paprika, etc... Good tips!

I'm afraid I like broccoli steamed over every other cooking method. I love it plain, add butter or cheese- and it's out of this world. I don't like my vegetables (or tofu) browned much, that tastes burnt to me- and oven roasted veggies are often too browned/wilted by the time I feel they're cooked all the way through (and I want them cooked all the way through- my diet has a lot of ruffage and I chew enough). That's why I'll never cook my veggies like people cook meat. Not that I ever cooked anything except hamburger, it's been over 30 years. I wonder if other long time vegetarians feel the same.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: [02:33] ♨️ Preheating the baking sheet in a hot oven (500°F) creates even cooking for roasted vegetables. The hot surface creates caramelization on the bottom while the top steams for a crisp and tender texture [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [03:01] Vegetables can be prepared like proteins for a more satisfying main course. Starchy vegetables like butternut squash benefit from different cooking methods than broccoli to achieve a meaty texture [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [03:28] Starchy vegetables like butternut squash have a dense sweetness that can be enhanced with bold seasonings for a flavorful main course [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [03:38] Butternut squash should be cut into steaks for even cooking and to create a more impressive presentation for a main course [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [04:00] A sharp chef's knife is more efficient than a vegetable peeler for removing the skin from butternut squash [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. Peeling should focus on removing the light yellow flesh, which is starchy and stringy, and keeping the bright orange flesh [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [04:30] Cutting butternut squash into 3/4-inch thick steaks ensures even cooking and maximizes the surface area for browning [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [05:01] ❌ Roasting butternut squash steaks at 400°F without pre-searing leads to tough exteriors and undercooked interiors [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [05:28] Searing butternut squash steaks first in a hot pan and then finishing them in the oven results in a cooked interior but a soggy exterior [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [05:56] Reverse searing is recommended for butternut squash steaks: bake them first until tender and then sear them in a hot pan for a crispy crust [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. This method allows excess moisture to evaporate in the oven, which aids in crisping during searing [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [05:56] ✨ Scoring the surface of butternut squash steaks in a crosshatch pattern helps achieve even browning and crispier crusts by promoting evaporation and allowing better spice rub penetration [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. It's not essential but recommended for optimal results [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [07:23] Butternut squash steaks benefit from a spice rub to add savory flavors that complement the natural sweetness of the squash [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [07:30] ♨️ Reverse searing butternut squash steaks involves roasting them at 450°F on a rack in a non-preheated oven for 15 minutes to achieve tenderness throughout before searing them in a hot skillet [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [07:52] When searing butternut squash steaks, preheat the pan with oil over medium-high heat until smoking hot. Sear the steaks for 3 minutes per side for a crispy exterior [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [08:23] ️ Spicy roasted butternut squash steaks pair well with a cooling ranch dressing for a balanced and flavorful dish [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [09:58] ⚠️ Roasting whole Romanesco at a low oven temperature, similar to roasting broccoli, results in an undercooked center even when the exterior is browned [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. This is because the Romanesco, like butternut squash, is a dense vegetable [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [10:27] ❌ While effective, boiling and steaming whole Romanesco have drawbacks: boiling can leach flavor and overcook florets before the stem cooks, and steaming methods like using foil take a long time [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [10:55] ✨ Microwaving is the most efficient way to pre-cook whole Romanesco before oven roasting. It achieves even cooking and delivers good flavor [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [11:05] ⏲️ Microwaving a 2-pound head of Romanesco with 3 tablespoons of butter for 8-12 minutes (or 5-7 minutes for 2 smaller heads) steams it perfectly for further oven roasting [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [11:55] Broiling is the recommended final step for roasted Romanesco after pre-cooking with microwaving. Broiling ensures even browning on the florets [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [12:23] ⏱️ Broil whole roasted Romanesco for 8-10 minutes for spotty brown, caramelized florets [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [12:30] Berbere spice blend is recommended for a flavorful topping for the roasted Romanesco. You can buy it pre-made or make your own spice blend [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [12:55] Spiced butter made with melted butter and berbere spice blend adds extra flavor to the roasted Romanesco [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. The hot pan browns the milk solids in the butter for additional flavor [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. [13:24] Basting the roasted Romanesco with the spiced butter ensures even flavor distribution and caramelization [VIDEO TIMESTAMP]. Made with HARPA AI

I'm all for making veggies taste better. I hve been eating plant-based based for over ten years now. Here's the problem with the amounto of oil in this recipe. Calories in one medium head of broccoli = 61 Calories in 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil = 371 The broccoli that was 61 cal. is now 432 calories. Yes, its now tastier, but at what cost? The calorie count was increased by seven times, not counting the sugar.

Parboiling in the microwave also keeps more of the good stuff in the food rather than having it leach into the water.

I'm wondering if they will ever come up with ideas that make cooking easier in the test kitchen. Not everybody has hours to spend making dinner.

Thank you for using a plate to cover the bowl of Romanesco instead of plastic wrap.

How do you keep your sheet pans so shiny? Mine are all stained and discolored.

I love the enthusiasm and the effort but using the word steak for vegetable dishes is a pet peeve of mine lol. There needs to be a better term. lol.

Why peel the stalk?? It's perfectly edible and has a lot of vitamins and fiber. That helps keep you full and helps with your blood sugar. I don't understand why people peel butternut squash either. Once again it's perfectly edible.

If you have dogs, most of those veg scraps won't go to waste. Mine love the skin of butternut squash more than store-bought treats! Broccoli stems too. Just do a quick Google to make sure it's dog safe. Even my cat loves veg scraps- haven't had the heart to tell the little vegan that his cat food is made of meat 😂
