PERFECT CABBAGE WITH DILL
We really love this cabbage served with corned beef or a roasted pork loin. My family just loves this cabbage. The longer the cabbage is cooked, the softer it gets, so make it how you prefer.

STEAMED ROOT VEGETABLES WITH DILL BUTTER
A great recipe I like to use in winter when I receive my monthly shares from the local organic farm. There are usually a lot of roots included. OK the brussel sprouts don't count as roots, but the rest are. If I just have large potatoes, I cut in eights instead of quarters. If I just have regular large onions, I cut them in eighths, but the chunks do tend to separate with cooking. Times will vary slightly for different types of vegetable. During preparation, I just scrub off the skins of the carrots with a vegetable brush rather than peel them, which saves time and is less messy I think. I give the time for if you steam them one after another, but of course you can cut down on cooking time continually by steaming different types simultaneously in separate saucepans (or steam some together if you have a large enough pan). I omit the salt, but you don't have to. This goes great with roast beef.

STEAMED CABBAGE AND VEGETABLES
I found the inspiration for this recipe which I just created today from an old nursing home cookbook in Crisfield, Maryland. This is easy to assemble and is healthy. It may be served as a side dish or as a soup, if you dish it up with the broth. Either way, it is good with ham or corn beefed brisket. Add various seasonings according to your taste. It you want potatoes in there, add a few quartered ones during the last half hour of cooking time.

Tips:
- Choose fresh and firm vegetables: Look for vegetables that are brightly colored and free of blemishes. Avoid vegetables that are wilted or have soft spots.
- Clean the vegetables thoroughly: Scrub the vegetables with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris. Rinse the vegetables well under cold water.
- Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If you are using a steamer basket, make sure the pieces are small enough to fit through the holes.
- Season the vegetables simply: A little salt, pepper, and herbs are all you need to bring out the natural flavor of the vegetables.
- Steam the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and lose their flavor. Check the vegetables regularly with a fork or knife to see if they are done.
- Serve the vegetables immediately: Steamed vegetables are best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make them ahead of time, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
