  • Use a good quality beer: The beer you use in the sauce will impact its flavor. Choose a beer that you enjoy drinking, as its flavor will be noticeable in the sauce.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately: Steamed broccoli is best served hot, immediately after cooking. This ensures that it retains its鮮豔色彩和營養.
