Notes
1. Soaking vegetables with large flowering heads, such as broccoli and cauliflower in lightly salted water is a good way of cleaning them.
2. When cutting the broccoli, the florets should include part of the stem as well as the flowery part. The stems are edible, they are crunchy and tasty. After cutting the florets, remove the outer fibrous layer of the stem with a vegetable peeler, then slice it thinly at a 45-degree angle, and cook with the florets.
3. If softer crunch broccoli is preferred, add another tablespoon of water, cover, and cook for a minute a second time before adding the sauce.
