What can I do with vegetable water?

• Make bread with it (let it cool enough that you don't kill the yeast, first.)
• Make soup with it.

I've read that if you can't or don't use it for your own consumption, that houseplants really love it (after it's cooled, of course).

I usually add some other veggies "disposable parts" to that water before boiling, so i make a vegetabel stock, and then use it to make risotto

When steaming vegetables, I'm often making something that tastes good with stock or gravy. The vegetable water makes a great base for both. If you use instant granules, you can just pour the steaming water into the powder for extra flavour.

Vegetable water is totally harmless and can often be used as a base for a broth. If meat is an option, fortify it with chicken broth..or better yet, use it to make your own beef/chicken broth. If desired, you can also fortify it with more savory tasting vegetables. Celery and carrots usually impart a nice flavor. Just make sure u strain the solids.

You can also use the veggie water as a substitute for water in your morning smoothies, especially if there's color and flavor in it.

I like using vegetable water to cook pasta, particularly when I'm going to not use a thick sauce (e.g. tossing the pasta with olive oil, dried herbs, and some grated parmesan).

I also use it to cook rice, in the same vein as above (i.e. not with thick sauces).

You practically have vegetable tea. Options related to its condition are:

Actual state: Just drink it at your preferred temperature. You may be able to sense its flavor, but it is as satisfying as normal water anyway.

Hydrating water: Some salt, Sodium bicarbonate, citric juice and Aid is ready for your training, excercise, Hangover.

Flavored water: Lemon juice can make it a good meal companion if you are fine with unsweetened drinks. You have two more options there.

• Plus of Herbal tea for a more focused flavor (Chaya leaf [Cnidoscolus aconitifolius] is simillar to brocolli water taste). Temperature is your choice.

• A little of salt and chilli powder* if you are related to the joy of drinking the broth made by eating picks of square chopped aliments (fruit, sausage, cheese, chips, corn, etc.) as a snack. Preferrably warm/hot.

Consommé: Chilli powder*, soy/hot sauce*, lemon juice, salt, peper, garlic, matching spices, chopped onion and green chilli, milk products and dressings, make it a good clear soup to drink it warm/hot just as it is. You can also add some complements in little pieces like bread (croutons), solid cheese (Panela, Gouda, etc.), more vegetables or even use it to cook your ramen noodles.

General purpose Broth: The consommé serve as a great seasoning for grains, legumes, meat, seafood and vegetable hot soup.

Don't consider only wheat flour to make bread with the water. Corn and other wheats can serve great for making good complements such as tortillas an other region specific (ussually salty) bread shapes.

This is as far as I go by experience and wide taste. Would be nice to know experience of a rice and brewing adventurers.

*Good chilli product brands are Tajín, Valentina/Tamazula and Tabasco. A nice and bitterseet (commonly not considered hot) sauce is called Chamoy.
