Freezing brocolli ?

Pink.

Hi daftlass,

I normally blanch mine first too. There's an older thread that should help so I've merged your thread with it to keep all the suggestions together.

hi there

The stalks are the best bit...i fight for those...not bothered about the tree bit,
With the stalks....heat a bit of butter, drop in a chopped onion and soften, add the chopped up stalks and sweat off a little....add a sprinkle of flour and cook a minute or so..add hot stock..veg or chicken and bring to the boil, reduce and simmer..season and blitz...mmmm broccoli soup... dont put a lid on your pan whilst cooking..it makes greens discolour quicker....it will still be slightly darker in colour..but yummy all the same
