ARF: Sautéed Broccolini
Posted on April 3, 2006
Well, I’ve gone and done it. After all the talk I’ve heard through the food blogging universe about broccolini, I had to try it myself. And as it turns out I love it, and my husband – the self proclaimed vegetable hater – doesn’t mind it, which is high praise for him. It was sweeter than broccoli with a faint peppery edge. Definitely a YUM worthy vegetable.
