Philip Harben recommends ways of cooking greens, roots, and dried vegetables to obtain their full flavour and best value.
The basis of the 'conservative' method of cooking vegetables is to have little or no water left over. To be cooked in this way vegetables must be in smalt pieces, otherwise excessive time will be taken. Long, slow cooking of vegetables allows an enzyme known as ascorbic acid oxidase to kill vitamin C, which is essential to human well-being. The methods which preserve the vitamin also preserve the flavour. Dried vegetables (peas, beans, lentils, etc.) have had their natural water removed so that they will keep for long periods in store: part of the cooking process consists in replacing this water and the vegetables treble their dry weight.
