Ingredients:
4 cup ;Water
8 oz New red-skinned potatoes - scrubbed
1 large Cauliflower head, rinsed - florets & stems separated
1 large Fresh garlic head - cloves separated & peeled
1 cup Fresh fava beans or
6 Radish-size turnips w/greens
2 Green zucchini, in 1" rounds
2 Yellow zucchini - cut in 1" rounds
1/2 cup Mixed fresh herb leaves* - loosely packed
6 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions:
*Combine 2 or 3 of the following herbs: basil, thyme, marjoram,
oregano and tarragon.

Note: If turnips are larger than radish size, cut them in half or
quarter them.

Bring water to a boil in the bottom of a vegetable steamer over high
heat. Place the potatoes in the steamer basket, cover, and cook until
they begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the cauliflower stems,
garlic cloves and fava beans; cover and steam until the stems begin
to soften, about 5 minutes. Add cauliflower florets and steam until
they begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Then add zucchini, and the
turnips if you are using them. Cover; steam until zucchini has
softened and begun to turn translucent, about 8 minutes.

While vegetables are steaming, coarsely chop the herbs, then whisk
them together with the olive oil in a large serving bowl. Transfer
the steamed vegetables to the bowl, toss gently and serve immediately.

Yield: 4 to 6 servings.

Steaming time for vegetables: Potatoes - 15 minutes. Cauliflower
florets - 8 minutes. Cauliflower stems - 12 to 18 minutes. Fava
beans - 12 to 18 minutes. Small turnips - 8 to 10 minutes. Yellow
squash - 8 to 10 minutes. Zucchini - 8 to 10 minutes.

Loomis writes that this is "...the most flavorful mix of vegetables
I've ever tasted."
