how to prepare baby broccoli
Add about 1 tablespoon of oil to a sautÃ© pan. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it sizzles. Add the baby broccoli to the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it becomes tender and bright green. Stir or toss the broccoli constantly so all sides cook evenly without overcooking. Serve warm. Season sweet baby broccoli simply with a touch of butter and salt and pepper for taste.
Fill a pot with 2 to 3 inches of water. Set a steamer basket on top so the basket sits above the water inside. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Lay the baby broccoli in the steamer basket and place the lid on top. Steam the baby broccoli for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the stalks and florets brighten in color and become tender. Serve warm. Wash and trim the stalks.
