Hi Erica. Yes I have, but I find steamed broccoli just isn’t as good. It seems to bring out the sulfur for me. Maybe the higher temperature of the steam does something? I don’t know. A quick boil just works better, for me. Key word of course is quick; just soft enough to bite. In the big picture, I think, the impact on wastewater and nutrients is negligible; one probably uses 50 times more water for the morning shower!
OTOH I’m big on steaming eggs for HB, although I decided using a steamer basket was just too much rigamarole so I just put the eggs in the pot and fill about 1/3 to 1/2 way up with water and do them that way. Works great. Also less wasted water Sorry couldn’t resist.
