Instructions

  • 1.   Wash the broccoli. Rinse them under water and wash them well by rubbing off any dirt with your fingers. (There is no need to rinse frozen broccoli: they have been washed before being packaged.)
  • 2.   Cut your broccoli into small pieces. Take a sharp knife, place the vegetables on a cutting board and cut into florets. You can also use the stems: they are healthy and their texture contrasts with that of the head. Cut them into small pieces as well.
    (Usually, frozen broccoli is sold pre-cut. Make sure these pieces are the right size and if desired, cut them further.)
  • 3.   Place your vegetables in the steamer basket. Spread them evenly in the basket.
    Let them cook for 4-5 minutes covered. Keep a close eye on your broccoli to avoid overcooking.
    Pierce them with a fork to see if they are cooked. They are done if the fork easily goes through.
  • 4.   If desired, season them with a little pepper, butter, or salt.
