This is the case with steamed pumpkin slices. If the whole pumpkin cup is steamed, it will take a long time, about 35 minutes. Because the skin of the pumpkin is hard, it is better to steam the whole pumpkin for a long time, but if the pumpkin is cut and steamed, the time will be less.
Matters needing attention in steaming pumpkin
1. Peeling and steaming: Although keeping the pumpkin skin steamed can better lock the nutrients contained in the pumpkin, it is inevitable that the surface of the pumpkin skin bought in the supermarket is unclean or there are residual harmful substances, so peeling is safer and peeling and steaming can shorten the cooking time.
2, steaming with hot water: steaming with hot water is faster, which can better retain the nutrients in pumpkin.
3. Grasp the steaming time: If the steaming time is too short, the immature pumpkin will feel alive. If steamed for too long, the pumpkin will become soft, taste bad and lose nutrition. So the time to steam the pumpkin should be just right.
