How to cook broccoli

[LeonK]

I don't really like Broccoli but I'm going to eat it anyway. How do you guys cook your brocolli so it has some taste?

dont cook it, eat it raw

omg steamed brocolli (fresh) is the ONLY was to eat it...with some garlic, sooooo good


SPECIAL RECIPE...do ^^ but cook half pound of beef, ground, mix is all together, and put b/t two pieces of sourdough bread!! and you got yourself some good eatin.

I mostly use frozen broccoli.... due to cost & cuz it just lasts longer.....

I get a plastic bowl, put the broccoli in & pour a little broth over it then microwave it. I use a pair of kitchen shears to cut it up into little pieces & will mix with peppers, mushrooms, etc & use in a variety of dishes....

Spices are your friend!! Mrs. Dash makes a good variety of flavors.

Sounds real good jenscat but I would be careful if you are cooking in the microwave with plastic - something I heard about the plastic molecules mixing in with your food, just something you might want to ask around about.

Yep, I heard that too....but they were talking about heating things up in the plastic type of containers that butter/margarine/ricotta cheese, etc come in -- they are not meant for heating & melt when heated.... (well, if it's the same article)


The stuff I have is the Tupperware, etc brand....meant to be heated...

steaming it is the best

I just steam or microwave the little guys and top with a tiny bit of this 0 calorie syrup I have. Sugar free syrup would work just as well i assume. Makes the taste very sweet and actually makes me look forward to the broccoli. Now cauliflower on the other hand is the food of the gods and I only eat that stuff plain.

what you gotta do is add your spices to the "steamed" broccoli.

here we got some garlic, and "BAM" we add the garlic!

I learned that from Emeril. Dude is one hell of a powerlifter in his spare time.
