Who else here is a fan of broccoli? This great green vegetable is so much more than just a source of nutrients; it is also incredibly versatile and tastes great in a variety of dishes whether international or Asian.

Broccoli Florets vs Cuts

A delicious broccoli dish would entail bold flavors and punchy seasonings. They taste wonderful when paired with meat and mushrooms. If you’re looking for broccoli, you can always purchase some from Puri Pangan Utama, a reputable and established food distributor in Bali.

Broccoli Nutrition

Consuming broccoli is a win-win for everyone; it is wonderful for balancing out flavors while giving you all the daily nutrients that you would need! It has a reputation as a nutritional gold mine, and no wonder, as the broccoli is chock-full of iron, magnesium, calcium, potassium, vitamins A, K and C, fiber, folate, anticarcinogens, and antioxidants.

Broccoli Nutrition

It also has almost zero fats and only 35 calories per 90 grams. Eating broccoli regularly would boost your immune system and reduce risks of breast cancer, colon cancer, stomach cancer, cataracts, ulcers, and heart disease.

Another interesting fact to note about broccoli is that each part contains different levels of nutrients. A good example is that the top part of the broccoli, known as the florets, contains higher levels of vitamin A and both florets and stems contain equal parts of vitamin C and folate.

Broccoli Florets vs Cuts

Broccoli Florets

So now that we know all about broccoli’s nutritional value, let’s take a look at which part of the broccoli is better for cooking. When buying broccoli, you’ll have two options – broccoli florets or cuts.  The difference between the two is just in the way they are cut. As mentioned above, florets are the top parts of the broccoli, also known as the “crown” where the green and white buds are, and some of the short, thin stems. This part of the broccoli is more popular as it is softer, slightly bittersweet and easier to eat.

Broccoli cuts include the crown of the broccoli as well as the stalks, which are firmer than the florets but are popular with those who love a thicker and crunchier texture. It tastes milder than the florets but adds a mix of flavor notes to your dish when cooked together.

Broccoli Cuts

When it comes to cooking broccoli, florets take less time to cook compared to broccoli cuts. Remember not to overcook as they can easily become mushy and soft if left in the heat for too long. Broccoli cuts would take slightly longer to cook as the stalks are thicker and tougher, which means it would need a few more minutes in the heat to become softer and easier to eat.

So what’s our verdict? Whether frozen or fresh, both broccoli florets and cuts are great for cooking at home, without having to do much else in preparation. They’re easy to cook and taste great whether boiled, steamed, grilled, roasted or sautéed with other frozen vegetables. You can even enjoy broccoli florets raw!
