– Use the stems in recipes and meals. Broccoli stems are nutritious (rich in vitamin C) and hold up well in cooking.
– Pair broccoli with olive oil, citrus, or spices to enhance flavor.
– Don’t cook broccoli past a bright green color. This will make it mushy and overcook it, which will lead to loss of beneficial water-soluble nutrients and compounds.
– Use minimal water when cooking, as excessive water results in nutrient loss.
