Tips:

  • Choose fresh and vibrant broccoli and cauliflower: Look for broccoli and cauliflower florets that are deep green and white, respectively, with no signs of wilting or yellowing.
  • Cut the florets into uniform sizes: This will help them cook evenly and will also make the salad more aesthetically pleasing.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Broccoli and cauliflower should be cooked until they are tender-crisp, not mushy.
  • Use a variety of nuts and seeds: This will add texture and flavor to the salad. Some good options include almonds, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the salad immediately: Broccoli and cauliflower salad is best enjoyed fresh.
