Steamed/Cooked Vegetables for 25

By adding 2 or three extra vegetable dishes, and one more pound of pasta, you can increase this meal to serve 10 extra people without more meat.

About 4 to 5 pounds of wholly edible such as green beans, carrots, or cauliflower; proportionately more of other vegetables.

1 pound of fresh greens makes only about 1 cup of cooked, so you need 8-9 pounds of greens for this meal.

Preheat the large pan or wok for steaming. Takes about 25 minutes to step.

Special note for corn on the cob. This is not an easy vegetable for a large group, it heats up the kitchen and takes a LONG time to boil the water, but if you decide to try it, have the shucked corn at room temperature. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil (allow 20 minutes per gallon you have to heat), add the ears of corn, bring back to a boil and cook 5 minutes. Drain at once and serve.
