Broccoli

Fortunately, we don't have to worry about removing the skin from broccoli, but the cooking method is where we can run into trouble. Broccoli contains some vitamins that are heat-sensitive and water-soluble. This means that boiling isn't the best method, if you want to conserve all the good nutrients it possesses. By preparing broccoli this way, you lose the hydrosoluble vitamins (except if you drink the cooking water...), so opt for quick steaming or saute for a few minutes in order to preserve its minerals as much as possible.
