SELECTIONS
The nutritional content of vegetables, as well
as their taste and texture, is affected by how
you handle them, and especially by how you
cook them. Here are some general rules to keep
in mind; vegetables are exposed to light and
air; therefore, don't wash, chop, or slice
vegetables until you are ready to use them.
While vegetables should always be washed before
you cook or serve them raw, long soaking is not
recommended, as it can leach out water-soluble
vitamins. You can quickly but thoroughly rinse
vegetables under cold running water, or dunk them in
several changes of water in a basin. Use a soft brush
to remove dirt that clings; lukewarm water also helps
to release sand and grit from leafy vegetables
STORAGE
STORAGE
Different vegetables have different
storage requirements, but in general, it's
best to keep them in a cool, dry place with
good air circulation and separate them by
type.
Washing
Washing
Always wash vegetables thoroughly before
cutting or consuming to remove dirt, germs,
and pesticide residue. Use a brush for root
vegetables. Use appropriate cutting techniques
to ensure even cooking. For example, uniform
sizes promote consistent cooking.

COOKING
Always remember to cook vegetables in the
shortest amount of time for the desired
tenderness. Vegetables have some vitamins
that are destroyed by heat it means they
provide less vitamins. For vegetables that have
a skin, scrub well and cook with the skin on
whenever possible.
