Started to freeze my surplus Veg.
In the blanching process.
can you steam your veg instead of boiling them, if you can how much longer should you allow.
The reason i ask, steaming keeps a lot more of the flavour and the goodness in the veg.

I understood that a lot of the reason blanching (by its name) is done so quickly is so that it doesn't remove all the goodness.

I've never read of steaming being used.  A quick scald to kill all bacteria is all that is required.  I think you'd run the risk of cooking them properly if steaming.

Thankyou for the replys,
A quick boil is what i'll carry on doing,
