Considering the fact that most people find cauliflower to be broccoli's bland, white cousin.

Have you tried seasoning it? Broccoli is one of the biggest flavor sponges out there. Parboil and stir fry, or drizzle with oil and roast in the oven. It works good in stews and stir fries, too.

This is unironically the worst advice you can give about broccoli. The problem people have with stems is that they either buy old broccoli and/or they don't know how to trim them. Peel the fibrous outer layer off and they're more tender and more flavorful than the florets.

Finish in a pan with a fuck ton of butter, chopped garlic, salt, pepper, and if you want to add even more richness some heavy cream.

It basically is for food.

>a flavor enhancer commonly added to Chinese food, canned vegetables, soups and processed meats. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified MSG as a food ingredient that's "generally recognized as safe," but its use remains controversial.

I have a tin of MSG. I add it to veggie stir fry's, soups. It's naturally occurring, as well. And it gives that "umami" kick.

Honestly I'm a fan of cheese on broccoli. I like to shread some mozzarella on it (I never had it with another cheese, so this is the only thing I can recommend).I like steaming mine, but frying it sounds delicious too, everything except for boiling works. Also seasoning the hell out of it. Tomatoes are great with broccoli, too.

Make Jacques Pepin's sausage ragout. It starts with sausage, then you add some onion and garlic as that starts to brown. Cook for a few minutes until the onions are translucent, adding salt, pepper, and chili flakes. Add in the florets from 2-3 heads of broccoli, the juice from a couple of cans of cannellini beans, the juice from a can of chopped clams, and some bottled clam juice. Cook until the broccoli is just tender, then add in the canned beans and clams and stir to combine. Cook until warmed through, and then dish out into bowls and top with a drizzle of good olive oil and some grated parmesan.

Those broccoli pieces will soak up the clam juice and sausage flavor like they were a sponge. That shit is amazing.

should always be accompanied by another vegetable or a meat. no amount of seasoning will make solo broccoli or broccoli+rice taste good. I like to make it with spinach or meatballs or red bell peppers
