×INGREDIENTS
-
1 lb Broccoli Flower Clusters
-
0 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter Stick

1 fl oz Water

DIRECTIONS
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the broccoli, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to food processor or blender.
