| /

Broccolini or baby broccoli is a green vegetable similar to broccoli but with smaller florets and longer, thin stalks.

This vegetable has long and slender deep-green stalks with clusters of tender buds at the tips similar in appearance to compact broccoli florets.

The taste of broccolini buds and stalks is sweeter than broccoli and has overtones of mustard. When it's cooked, any heat goes away and is replaced by increased sweetness. The stalks are less fibrous than broccoli and never require peeling.

Broccolini is delicious eaten raw with creamy dips or blanched, stir-fried, steamed or sautéed. It works well in pasta dishes, omelets, salads, slaws, and soups.
