Article: Use either your hands or a knife to break the stalk of tenderstem broccoli into smaller pieces. Aim to create bite-sized pieces of tenderstem broccoli. Unlike regular broccoli that has a woody stem, tenderstem broccoli has a soft and nutritious stem, so you want to leave as much as you can. Leave the whole stem on the broccoli to get the most flavor and nutrition. Place the broccoli in a strainer, so you don’t have to hold it the whole time. Rinse the florets under cold water to clean off any dirt that may still be present. Rotate the pieces of broccoli so the water coats them entirely. Use cold water when you rinse the broccoli so it doesn’t soften up.
