Making hot pot later and I don’t want to waste any of my veggies. Thin cut broccoli, I’m guessing 3 mins? Thick crowns, I’m guessing 5-6 mins? Does that sound right or will they be mush?

Some of the fancier microwaves have steam sensors that will detect when it’s perfectly done, too. I have one but I haven’t tried it yet.

  Mine says it has one, but it’s waaaaaay off. Especially if it’s in a bowl. User beware
