I presume that it's preferable to actually cook (not steam) the vegetables in boiling water. I've already tried it and it's actually it's better for me (it "burns out" more of the fiber so it's a little more "soggy"). Believe me, I like to steam better after all these years but now I gotta go back to "old school" method.

I’ve tried it both ways: cooking in boiling water and steaming. I’ve decided I prefer steaming although it’s not the normal way to steam - I steam the hell out of vegetables to get rid of the fibrous-ness! It takes a long time and really heats up the house which is nice in the winter but not in the summer. But steaming doesn’t work with broccoli no matter how long I steam it. So I’m going to buy some broccoli and try your old school boiling method. That’s how my mom cooked it and I loved it. Thanks for reminding me about that!
