Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 1 min.
Place the brocoli in front of you, head downwards.
Stage 2 - 1 min.
The "head" is made up of many parts, often called "florets". Cut one near the base to detatch it.
Stage 3 - 2 min.
Do the same with this "head", dividing it by cutting off the smaller individual florets.
You should keep only these florets, the tenderest part of the broccoli, and set aside the stalks (left on the photo) that you can use for a soup for example.
