BROCCOLINI WITH CREAMY LEMON SAUCE
A broccoli recipe for those who thought they hated broccoli. Brocconlini is sweeter and milder tasting than mature broccoli. Found this jewel of a recipe in my March 2003 Better Homes and Garden magazine. Fresh asparagus, pea pods or romanesco would make excellent substitutes for the broccolini. Mascarpone is available at Trader Joe's and well-stocked grocery stores.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh broccoli florets. If using frozen broccoli, thaw it completely before cooking. - To make sure the broccoli is evenly coated in the lemon sauce, toss it gently in a bowl before serving. - If you don't have white wine on hand, you can substitute chicken broth or vegetable broth. - You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little bit of heat. - If you want a thicker sauce, you can add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the sauce and cook until thickened. - Serve the broccoli with lemon sauce immediately, or it will start to lose its bright green color.Conclusion:
