What to look for in broccoli!
Broccoli is part of the cabbage family. High in Vitamin C and K and fiber!
How to tell a broccoli is good or bad?
Good broccoli is young and tight on top. This means the broccoli is firm and nutritious!
Easy for consistent cooking and maximum flavor!
Bad broccoli is old and loose on top. The white stalk might be more flexible or soft. This type of broccoli is less nutritious and has no bite when cooked.
My favorite way to eat broccoli is to cut it raw into tiny chunks and add a salad mix. Lather on some dressing and you have a crunchy nutritious slaw!
A classic way to cook broccoli is blanching. Par cooking it in salted water for 20-30 seconds (depending on size). Then seasoning with salt, pepper, and butter.
A easy way to cook broccoli is in a ceramic bowl and microwave. Add broccoli to your bowl, salt, pepper, butter, and a little water. Cover it with plastic wrap and microwave! Boom, fully cooked broccoli in under 2 min. Easy as that!
