  • Wash broccoli thoroughly: Before cooking, rinse the broccoli under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Cut broccoli into uniform florets: This will help ensure even cooking. Cut the broccoli into 1-2 inch florets.
  • Steam broccoli to preserve nutrients: Steaming is the best way to cook broccoli to preserve its nutrients and bright green color. Steam the broccoli for 3-5 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
  • Use unsalted butter: Unsalted butter allows you to control the amount of salt in the dish. If you're using salted butter, be sure to adjust the amount of salt you add accordingly.
  • Toast almonds before using: Toasting almonds brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. Toast the almonds in a single layer in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Serve broccoli immediately: Broccoli is best served immediately after cooking to preserve its vibrant color and flavor.
