Tips:
- To select the best broccoli, look for florets that are compact and deep green in color. Avoid any that have yellowing or wilting florets.
- If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a more complex flavor that will add more depth to the sauce.
- To make the sauce ahead of time, simply whisk all of the ingredients together and store it in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to use it, just bring it to room temperature before serving.
- Serve the broccoli or broccoflower with grilled or roasted chicken, fish, or tofu. You can also add a side of quinoa or rice.
Conclusion:
This lemon Dijon sauce is a delicious and versatile way to dress up your broccoli or broccoflower. It's tangy, flavorful, and healthy, and it's sure to become a new favorite in your kitchen.
