Tips:
- To ensure the broccoli florets are evenly cooked, cut them into uniform sizes before blanching. This will prevent some pieces from being undercooked while others are overcooked.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of beer in the sauce. A light beer will result in a milder flavor, while a dark beer will impart a more robust flavor.
- If you don't have cornstarch on hand, you can make a simple roux using equal parts flour and butter. Just whisk the flour and butter together in a small saucepan over medium heat until golden brown, then add the beer and milk.
