BROCCOLI CASSEROLE



Broccoli Casserole image

Gouda and sour cream lend richness to this comforting casserole, while umami-rich Worcestershire sauce adds depth of flavor.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Main Dish Recipes     Casserole Recipes

Time 1h45m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 heads broccoli (2 1/2 pounds), cut into florets, stems peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus 2 tablespoons melted
1 small onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
8 ounces shredded Gouda cheese (about 3 cups)
30 saltine crackers, crushed (2 1/4 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In two batches, cook broccoli in a large pot of salted boiling water until slightly tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool. Drain well.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Add onion and mushrooms; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and starting to brown, about 7 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, 1 minute. Stir in milk in a slow, steady stream. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture coats the back of a spoon, about 9 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in mustard, Worcestershire, cayenne, sour cream, and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in cooled broccoli. Transfer to a 2 1/2-quart shallow baking dish. Combine crackers and remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over top of casserole. Bake until bubbling and top is browned, about 20 minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure the broccoli is tender-crisp, blanch it in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, then immediately transfer it to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a combination of sharp cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese for a more flavorful casserole.
  • If you don't have bread crumbs, you can use crushed crackers or tortilla chips instead.
  • For a vegetarian version of the casserole, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it and bake it for 25 minutes. Then, cover it and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, bake it for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until heated through.

Conclusion:

Melissa's Broccoli Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a potluck. The casserole is made with broccoli, cheese, bread crumbs, and bacon, and it is baked until golden brown and bubbly. The casserole is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy and satisfying meal. Whether you are looking for a comforting side dish or a main course, Melissa's Broccoli Casserole is sure to please everyone at the table.
