This is not the first broccoli salad on my blog and certainly not the last composition of this type. Broccoli salads are really easy to prepare, because the vegetable just needs to be lightly scalded with boiling water. It then remains delicious, crunchy and only softens slightly. Of course, in this case, the broccoli should be cut quite finely, large pieces would remain raw.
