TIP

*If you're not on a dairy-free diet, replacing the plant-based drink with cow's milk is an option.

  1. Clean well, taking care to remove the small brown film that covers them.
  2. Place them in a dish and cover them with cold water and the juice of half a lemon. Leave to soak for 10 to 15 minutes then drain.
  3. Rinse with plenty of water and drain again.
  4. Steam until tender (about 10 minutes) then run under cold water to stop cooking.
