The fix
Tap a step to check it off.
- 1 toss with a pinch of salt and olive oil
- 2 add lemon juice and garlic
- 3 serve warm to release aroma
If it's still wrong
- top with grated cheese
- serve with a bold sauce
Prevent next time
- season right after cooking
- use finishing salt at the table
Notes
Why this works
Broccoli is mild on its own. Salt, acid, and fat lift the natural flavor and make it taste more vivid.
