Do Carrots Take Longer To Steam Than Broccoli?
It depends on the size and thickness of the carrots and broccoli. Generally, if they are cut into similar-sized pieces, broccoli takes slightly less time to steam than carrots as it has a higher water content. However, if the carrots are cut into thin slices or matchsticks, they may cook faster than thick broccoli florets. It is best to test the doneness of both vegetables with a fork or knife to ensure they are cooked to your liking.
