Creamy Broccoli Purée
Ingredients:
-
5-6 large heads of broccoli, rinsed and cut into large pieces
-
1/2 cup to 3/4 cup water
-
salt to taste
Directions:​​
-
Bring a large pot of water to a boil with a pinch of salt.
-
Add the broccoli and cook until fork tender, around 8-10 minutes. Once cooked, do not discard the water it was cooked in.
-
Transfer the broccoli to your blender. Add a 1/2 cup of the boiled broccoli water to the blender.
-
Pulse the broccoli and water together until the broccoli breaks into smaller pieces, then blend on high until smooth.
-
If needed, add more water to reach desired consistency. Add salt to taste.
Pair it with a simple grilled salmon, use it as a dip for your favorite crackers, or spread it on toast! By thinning it with a little extra water, it also makes the perfect standalone soup.
