- Add remaining ingredients & mix well.
- Before serving, chill well for the best flavor.
Tips for Making the Perfect Broccomole:
- Choose the freshest broccoli possible. Fresh broccoli will have a deep green color and firm florets.
- Steam or boil the broccoli until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooked broccoli will be mushy and lose its flavor.
- Use a food processor or blender to puree the broccoli. A food processor will give you a smoother texture, while a blender will give you a chunkier texture.
- Add your desired seasonings and ingredients. Common additions to broccomole include garlic, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. You can also add other ingredients like avocado, cheese, or bacon.
- Serve broccomole immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Broccomole is best served fresh, but it will keep in the refrigerator for a few days.
Conclusion:
Broccomole is a healthy and delicious dip or spread that can be enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables and it is also a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Broccomole is also a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a healthy and tasty snack or appetizer, give broccomole a try.
