Beyond Broccoli

Despite its nickname, "baby broccoli" broccolini isn't immature broccoli. In fact, it's a completely unique vegetable hybrid that tastes like broccoli with a slightly different texture. With smaller florets and long, thin stalks, it cooks quickly and makes for a modern, very elegant presentation at the table. Here we take advantage of broccolini's tender nature with a stovetop sauté. We're also offering up our favorite way with good ol' broccoli. Roasting it in a hot oven enhances the sweet, nutty notes in this anything-but-basic green vegetable.
