Tips:
- Choose fresh, vibrant broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
- Cut the broccoli into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, they may not cook through properly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the broccoli, make sure to leave enough space between the florets so that they can cook evenly. Overcrowding the pan will steam the broccoli instead of sautéing it.
- Cook the broccoli until it is tender-crisp: You don't want to overcook the broccoli, or it will become mushy. Cook it just until it is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
- Use a high-quality butter: The butter is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a high-quality, unsalted butter. This will give the broccoli a rich, flavorful taste.
- Add the ginger and orange zest at the end of cooking: This will help to preserve their delicate flavors.
- Serve the broccoli immediately: This dish is best served immediately after cooking, while the broccoli is still hot and crispy.
