You're not the only one who likes a nice shvitz in the winter.
I've been steaming leeks in my steamer basket, yes, but I've also been steaming broccolini, potatoes, winter squash, green beans, broccoli, sweet potatoes, carrots, beets... and
. Anything that can be cooked in boiling water can be cooked by steam, which means that you can make a perfect midwinter midweek dinner right now, completely in your steamer, and it takes less than half an hour.Here's how it goes: While the water comes to a boil, you'll wash and trim a bunch of leeks, and scrub and halve some baby potatoes. Layer those into the bottom of your steamer, top them with eggs, then put the lid on for exactly 10 minutes.
Then the eggs come out and the broccolini goes in, and in just the time it takes to peel the eggs, dinner is ready. I like to add a swoosh of mayo to the side of my favorite dinner bowl, then pile those hot steamed things on top and douse it all in the tangy dressing. And then I leave the steaming pot uncovered on the stove until it's cool, so it humidifies my kitchen while I dig into a dinner that's warm and cozy yet fresh and bright, without a roasted thing in sight.
