Best Broccoli With Hazelnut Butter Recipes

BROCCOLI & GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Add the beans and simmer for 1 min, add the broccoli and then cook for 3 mins more until tender. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan and gently toast the hazelnuts until golden brown. Add the butter, let it melt and foam for just a few mins, but don't let it burn, then season well. Tip the drained vegetables into the frying pan and toss in the butter until everything is coated.

BROCCOLI WITH HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Finely grind 1/2 cup hazelnuts in processor. Transfer to large bowl. Add butter and mix with fork until well blended. Season butter mixture to taste with salt and pepper. Coarsely chop remaining 1/2 cup hazelnuts; set aside.
• Steam broccoli stems in large pot set over medium heat 3 minutes. Add florets and steam until stems and florets are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer broccoli to bowl with hazelnut butter. Add reserved 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper and serve.

ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH HAZELNUT BROWN BUTTER

Steps:

• Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 450°F.
• Put butter on a large rimmed baking sheet and roast until the butter is melted, browned and fragrant (4-5 minutes).
• Remove baking sheet from oven and toss Brussels sprouts and hazelnuts with the browned butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Return to oven and roast for 7 minutes; sprinkle with water, toss, and continue roasting until the sprouts are tender and lightly browned (another 7-9 minutes).
• Note: I used quite a bit more butter and added extra hazelnuts.

BROCCOLI WITH LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, combine the butter, water, lemon juice, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the broccoli to the pan, stir to coat, and cover with a lid. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring once, until broccoli is tender but still bright green. Serve warm, or refrigerate and serve cold.

BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC BUTTER AND CASHEWS

Steps:

• Place the broccoli into a large pot with about 1 inch of water in the bottom. Bring to a boil, and cook for 7 minutes, or until tender but still crisp. Drain, and arrange broccoli on a serving platter.
• While the broccoli is cooking, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Mix in the brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, pepper and garlic. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat. Mix in the cashews, and pour the sauce over the broccoli. Serve immediately.

STEAMED BROCCOLI WITH BUTTER

Steps:

• Trim bottom inch off broccoli stalks and discard. Cut each stalk crosswise into 3 pieces.
• Cut topmost piece of each stalk into small flowerets. Cut remaining pieces into fine julienne. Put all into cold water for at least 1/2 hour to refresh them.
• Bring suitably large steamer of water to boil, add all broccoli and steam, covered, for 5 minutes, tossing from top to bottom a few times.
• When just barely tender, remove to collander, spray liberally with cold water and drain.
• When ready to serve, melt butter in skillet and toss broccoli with salt and pepper to taste, until heated through.

BROCCOLI SALAD WITH HAZELNUT ROMESCO

Steps:

• Heat the broiler. Arrange an oven rack in the position closest to flame. Place peppers (cut side down), tomato halves (cut-side up) and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil until peppers and garlic are slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn garlic (but do not turn peppers or tomato); broil 1 to 2 minutes longer until garlic is well browned but not burned. Transfer garlic to a large bowl. Continue broiling peppers and tomatoes until both are well charred, 4 to 5 minutes longer. Transfer tomato and peppers to the bowl with the garlic. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Let stand until vegetables are cool enough to handle but still warm, then peel peppers and tomatoes.
• In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, pulse hazelnuts until coarsely ground. Add peppers, tomato, garlic, breadcrumbs, oil, vinegar, pomegranate molasses, paprika and salt. Purée until smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings. Scrape romesco into a bowl.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Have ready a large bowl of ice water. Boil broccoli until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to ice water; drain.
• In a large bowl, toss broccoli with enough romesco to coat vegetables well. (Reserve any remaining romesco for dipping or for another use.) Garnish with hazelnuts and serve warm or at room temperature.

BUTTER STEAMED BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Cut the broccoli into florets, discarding stems or reserving for another use.
• Combine the florets with butter, soy sauce and 1/4 inch water in a skillet large enough to hold the florets in a single layer.
• Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer 3 minutes.
• Remove cover and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, 1 -3 minutes longer.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Stir florets to coat with sauce and serve.
