  • With melted cheddar on it is good, but my favorite topping is a smattering of tomato-basil feta; the strong flavor of the broccoli is enough to carry it, and it's fairly different from standard fare.

    Nice call! :-)

  • Sick I tell ya!

    Ugh! Broccoli sucks. It's gotta be the suckiest vegetable there is. EVAR!
  • Steamed al dente*, with garlic salt. It's why I bought a steamer basket.

  • You're absolutely right!

    ...unless you count sausage? :-)

  • Lightly steamed broccoli rules!

    I also make a mean broccoli soup >:-)

    • Why on earth would you make broccoli soup mean? Isn't there enough hate in this world that you don't have to bring the innocent broccoli into it?!?!?! ;-)

      Broccoli is indeed great. Something I've learned since being diagnosed with IBS... its a FANTASTIC source of fiber.
      I like to steam it, then saute it with lotsa garlic, a little cream, and some parm (although I've been wanted to try to substitute the parm with gorganzola), and use the sauce + broccoli with some capellini pasta.

  • But, while brocolli is a great vegetable, it is not the *best*. That would have to be reserved for asparagus. An argument could be made for artichokes as well, but brocolli isn't even in the same league as those two...
  • Honestly, I don't believe I've met a broccoli I haven't liked.... Well - actually, my grandmom boils it to death, but a little salt and a pad of butter will fix even the worst cooks abuse of the green goodness. I even like the stalks.

    By the way - its best raw and naked :)
  • When I was a child I would not eat cooked vegetables except for green beans, corn and potatoes. I took all my vegetables raw. I loved raw cabbage, brussel sprouts, broccoli, turnip, carrots, kale, you name it. I hated them when cooked. To me they "tasted of the smell of smelly socks."

    As I got older, this perception wore off, and now all of these vegetables taste to me cooked like they were when raw but without the "smelly socks."

    As I've become progressively more allergic to dairy products, they've become ab
