Frozen vegetables and longer cooking time?
Howzit folks.
I am curious if I'm the only one experiencing this of late.
Lately I have noticed no matter what brand you buy, most of the frozen vegetables are super hard and need a long time to cook.
I remember back in the day you could add some frozen vegetables, be it peas and corn, mixed, etc. at the last minute to something like a chicken dish and they would come out soft. To the point I remember you couldn't add them in too early or you'd end up with mush.
Lately I've noticed you have to really cook the stuff for a long time before it gets soft. Like they need to be cooked for 30+ minutes before they even become tender. It feels like I need to add the frozen vegetables in, earlier and earlier in order for them to actually be cooked.
I was curious if I am the only one experiencing this. Maybe they changed the way they process it.
That's all. Just wondering what everyone's experience has been. Maybe I am remembering wrong?
