Dehydrator the stems and then grind them up and sprinkle then on everything. LOL
I grew broccoli for the first time last year.The flavor was fanastic, such a difference from store bought
Is the taste really noticeable? I’ve never had home grown broccoli but can’t wait to try it
I would never have thought of shredding the broccoli stems, what a great idea !
I love the stems. Often by themselves just fresh or in a stirfry. I have also cut them into sticks and pickled them. Very good
Pickled sounds yum! How do you do that?
Same as my standard pickle dill pickle recipe. I often use the stems and sometimes carrot sticks too. Will take a little longer on the shelf to pickle than cucumbers. I think it’s due to their heavier density but I love snacking on them. It’s amazing what can be put in a pickle. Pea pole do dilly beans, asparagus, zucchini, eggs, beets and many other items.
Great video. I love that after u showed us u a harvesting that u had Wanda to show us what to do with the harvest in the kitchen. Can’t wait until the next video!
Nice Broccoli. We have 2 of those old school aluminum handled knives also,they are my favorite kitchen knives,had them forever,practically indestructable.
OK MRS WANDA!!!! WHAT YOU DID WITH THOSE STEMS IS PURE GENIUS!!!!!
I love love and use the broccoli stems. I simply peel the tough outer skin off and cook it with the florets. The stems are tender as can be. You have yourself gorgeous broccoli 🥦 and it’s wintertime! I think I could grow cauliflower and broccoli if I had a greenhouse🦋💜
I L.O.V.E. Broccoli!!! It's in a tie with spinach and Kale for me. The stems make great broccoli coleslaw also. I have a broccoli casserole recipe that I've had to modify over the years that I love making. Super easy and SO yummy but, VERY fattening. LOL True Story. I NEVER ate broccoli till I was 16 years old. The smell of it cooking turned my stomach. My first love forced me to eat some one day at his house. He didn't want his mother to know I hated broccoli. LOL I have LOVED it ever since. I am so envious that y'all got a harvest. I'm 5 hours north and I have grown ONE head of broccoli ever. Between wonky weather, critters and cabbage worms...I have never had been successful. You guys give me hope!!! I can grow the heck out of spinach and kale. But, have a horrible time with other brassicas. Y'all are awesome. Great video!!
Wanda, fantastic ideas and Danny, thank you for the lessons on disease and culture.
Boy, it don't get no fresher than this! From field to table, same day!
Aloha Danny and Wanda, your broccoli looks delicious! Thank you for sharing, God Bless you all 🙏🌺🌴
Thanks Wanda and Danny. That is some nice broccoli! This is the first year in ages that I didn't grow my winter broccoli and I sure do miss it. I'll have to plant some early spring to make up for it. Much Love
Broccoli carrot salad sounds real interesting. Thanks for showing how you use and preserve your veggies.
Great info on the broccoli preservation!
Quite nice broccoli harvest. The veggie steamer - i really enjoy that tool. Have a nice day.
And good morning to you two and all. 😁 you're making me hungry lol
Interesting tip about broccoli stem..thank you. 🌻
thank you for explaining the plant problems and what to look for best video i have seen in a while
Those broccoli are gorgeous The stems are my favorite. 😊Francine
Broccoli is our favorite vegetable here .. we go through 2 quarts a week! I have GOT to get one of those shredders.
Very nice harvest. They look delicious!
Looks delicious, I love salad,and the broccoli is pretty.Thanks Much Love
Your broccoli is huge! I have taken broccoli stems and steamed with shredded carrot...never enough of either! Thank-you for another informative video. God Bless.
Hey, I can put sliced Broccoli in stews & roasts! We blanch then vacuum seal ours before freezing.. no freezer burn :) In about 3 weeks we will be planting lots more Broccoli! (Kansas)
Pickled Broccoli is great too!
My brocolli got to be about 4 ft tall! That's another reason to use tomato cages! I blanch and dehydrate some broccoli for future brocolli cheese soup. It's delightful!
Wow! You dun it again! I thought I knew it all... and then I learned sooo much from this vid from each of you. Wanda, I always peel the stalks, chop it up, and steam with the broccoli florets. We love it that way. If I end up with extra broccoli, I make a creamy broccoli soup the next day. But, now I know I can do so many other creative things with the stalks. I added this to my Growing Brassica collection of videos, because it's well worth me watching again and again to garnish info. Thanks y'all!
The only thing I'd change about this video is to post the planting date of your plants early in the video and maybe how many days it took you to get the harvest. But I'm being really picky. This is already a 5 star video in my book.
Hey Wanda 🤗
Thanks you for the broccoli 🥦 recipe .. I always throw my stems away now I can use them ..
Yummy supper ..
thanks for a great video
Take care .. stay warm .. 🥰
Blessing
👩🌾
When I had a garden, my broccoli grew wonderfully. This video made me wish I still had the garden. Nothing like fresh broccoli. That little salad looked good too.
You are blessed to have it this time of year. Last I had was 2016. Weather in northern Oklahoma has been horrid for early spring cold crops and fall. People better start now to learn the tuff time's.
You guys are amazing! Thank you for teaching a lost craft most young
" kids" no nothing about. This is VERY important information not to be taken lightly. Keep up the great work 👍
Great work , I really like the way you go from garden to gullet .
Beautiful heads , and great tip for the tomato cages for protection from uninvited guests.
Praying for continued Blessing , success on the Homestead .
Looks very yummy. I love your video content. I've been following you and Danny for at least a year. I love gardening and use allot of Danny's tips.
Thank you.
Beautiful broccoli, Danny and Miss Wanda! And your lunch looks amazing! Snow on the ground here and Spring fever is really setting in. LOL I started a few flowers as it's still too early to start anything that will be planted outside. I'm already planning the 6 new raised bed locations and planting grid. I can't wait! Please keep inspiring us all! :) Much love and blessings!
I would always steam my broccoli leaves. I love the leaves. So yummy and healthy!!
Thanks for the ideas. Have some broccoli that I’m going to prepare later today.
This was a great information video, thanks yall. Blessings
Thanks for your broccoli harvest.
I truly enjoy the leaves.
They are so delicious
Yummy Broccoli. I never knew that I could shred up the stems. I am gonna try that. God Bless You Both.
I will be trying to grow broccoli this year. Thanks for the info. I learned a lot
YELLOW/BROWN LEAVES: Two other possibilities; it might be early morning frost bite; or it might be su/heat burn from the heat reflected off of those black ground matts from the bright and sunny days when the temp is above 70 degrees.
Your broccoli looks beautiful!
That looks sooooo good.
I've got a couple-a-three 1-gallon vacuum bags in the freezer right now...love broccoli! I cook it like turnips, with bacon and eat it with corn fritters. I like brussels sprouts like that too.
I just bought broccoli yesterday, I didn’t grow any. That looks really good and great tip on the salt water soak, I will do that tomorrow before I cook it. Thanks Wanda, great video. Luv, Sherri 😊🌻🌈
You can eat the big leaves too. I cut out the stem and cut them into ribbons and sauteed in butter (or a little bacon grease) with salt and pepper. It's is SO good!
Oh wow looks good
Thank you on the salt issue pulling bugs out! I’ll do that outside 😅
Thanks for the in depth information.
Those leftover broccoli stems, can be put into a small glass of water, leave a bit of the top part out of the water (like you do when sprouting a sweet potato in a glass of water to grow slips). And you mist the top of the broccoli stem once in awhile to keep it from drying out.. and you can get that stalk to grow shoots, leaves, and plant it out in the Spring. And get broccoli plants (w/a head start, faster than starting from seeds) growing in your garden!! I really liked how you shredded those broccoli stems with the carrot. I would have never thought to do that. It reminded me of my grandmother saying "Waste not want not"! She said that all the time. And using those stems this way instead of discarding them, is nice.
Oh my gosh, what beautiful broccoli! The broccoli in our grocery store doesn't look that beautiful! What a blessed garden you have! Watching Wanda steam it made me hungry, Lol.
That broccoli looks so delicious & vibrant! 😛🥦
Beautiful...yum yum...
thank you for the good ideas
Great info on growing broccoli.
Lovely!!
Such great information ! I learned a lot!
Man...I can see Ms. Wanda using Danny's smoked cheese and making broccoli and cheese soup. Yum
GORGEOUS BROCCOLI!!!!!
Your broccoli will steam much more evenly if you wait til your water boils, before placing the steamer in the pot.
I just was blessed with 10 pounds of Broccoli here in Montgomery County , Texas - I believe I blanch then freeze , looked up how to freeze & your video came up
Big hugs
Mrs Josette Tharp - Texas
ahhhh, a little worm is extra protein, lol,,,,,your chickens will love those worms,,,,great harvest
WOW... Im so jealous, we dont have room to grow broccoli but maybe one day!!
Good helpful video. I like the way it was divided, picking, cooking and storage. Wanda, I would have thought that soaking the broccoli in salt water would have made it taste salty but then you added more salt when steaming. As you can tell I never prepared broccoli.
Kia Ora from NZ.
Wonderful presentation. I love both your enthusiasm.
Really appreciate your tips.
Enjoy the good life guys :)
Nga mihi
Chris
Thank you for sharing
you should blanch veggies before freezing. It will help retain a nice color instead of turning dark/black when frozen
Danny, one year I grew broccoli heads the size of a dinner plate. The variety was called pacman. Love your videos.
I just saw a video today where a guy picked a gigantic broccoli head. It was pacman. Gonna try to get some of those seeds!
GOD BLESS
GORGEOUS Broccoli! But, I can't believe there are actually cabbage worms at this time of year??? They're relentless..... A friend gave me broccoli from her garden and it was FULL of worms.... YUK. I had never HAD fresh broccoli from a garden before. Wanda, I LOVE that HUGE bowl and the color is SO pretty! I LOVE using those little steamer baskets... They work excellently! SO happy you had a nice harvest!!! Love you both!
That is nifty shreader!
Nice!
Awesome
Looks yummy!
The leaves are good to eat also.
This made me soooo hungry for fresh broccoli! I am going to go buy some organic broccoli (I am in Ohio, no growing anything outside in January) and use the whole thing up the way you did. Such a good idea for the stems, I never would have thought of that.
Mmmmm you guys are making me hungry 👍
my mouth is watering - I would be eating all those little shoots right then. dirt and all
Nice broccoli
I’ve been eating broccoli at least 4 times a week for many plus yrs now. I get organic bags at Costco. I hear it’s a super food, I hope it’s doing me some good:)
👍💕
Joy Reardon It’s good for you, but too much can affect your thyroid. If you haven’t had it checked in a while, you might want to do that.
Cynthia Fisher Thank you! I get all my blood work done every year, and it’s fine..
Joy Reardon Oh, good! Keep enjoying that yummy broccoli, then! I love it too.
The stems are great for juicing. Especially for men. The denser the strm, the more juice. Broccoli and all cruciferous veggies are high in flavinoids etc that support healthy testosterone levels and lower high estrogen levels in men. Especially good at shrinking an enlarged prostate, cancer etc
You can also make broccoli “rice” from the stems and use it like you would cauliflower “rice”. Lots of goodness there.
Yes
Great video! If you’ll cut your broccoli heads at a sharp angle, they’ll be less chance of stem rot
Another wonderful session - as always. Could you also cut the broccoli stems into smaller sticks and ferment or pickle them?And what is the name if the fertilizer you use?
I didn't know that about the boron. I had so many issues last year with insects I'm not sure I will grow it anymore. Thanks for sharing!
Try planting a few sacrificial plants around the garden to lure the bugs/worms away. I plant a few brassicas around the perimeter and while it's not 100% perfect, it does make a difference for me. When they've done their job, they go to the chickens, worms and all. :) I'm told bok choy is great for keeping flea beetles off eggplant. Will see how that works this year. Hope this helps!
I've given up on growing it in the spring .. as soon as the pinheads emerge, they gobble it up like candy. After the grasshoppers die off, though, I can grow as much as I want.
Overlook Valley Homestead I haven’t tried it yet, but other homesteaders are using floating row covers over the broccoli to keep the bugs off. They say it really works. You might try it instead of giving up altogether.
@@FairieChele that's what I did last year and it does help definitely! And I'm checking into row covers.
Thank you for this video I learned a lot on how to use all the broccoli including the bottom of the broccoli using it to make broccoli soup was the best idea I will be trying this for sure as well as that broccoli salad looks so tasty yum yum… one question how long will the broccoli last in the freezer?
I have never frown broccoli will have to try that for next year, to late now.
M’mmmm what time is lunch? All I need is an address! Looks delicious
That some good eating YUMMY
i eat the small leaves too
Very useful content DSH! When will you do your next round of broccoli? Hubby love it, it gives me gas! smh
Put a little vinegar in steaming water and you might feel better.
@@gogogardener Hubby hates vinegar which ust means more work for me having to cook two batches.
Love the use of the stems! Now as always my question. What did you use the get the pretty little ridges in the stems when you sliced them up?
A lot of times presentation is key to getting someone to eat something new or different.
Hope y’all are safe over the weekend and God Bless🙏
The slicer that I used to make shreds has many attachments. I used a ribbon attachment. Just forgot to film it.
Stink bugs here too in East Tennessee
What kind of a vegetable shredder was that that you used for the broccoli I've never seen anything like that thank you
Never thought of using tomato cages around the broccoli. Deer and rabbits just decimated my broccoli this year.
Shalom! Mr. Danny and Miss Wanda, that broccli is so pretty and green and very fresh. What kind of broccli what is the name of the broccoli and where did y'all purchase your seeds? I would really like to grow pretty broccoli like yours. Thank you all and Blessings to you and yours!
This is called green comet. I purchased the plants on these to see how they would do.
Do you pull up the plant? First time I grew broccoli I let them go a bit to long , but thanks for the tip about salt water and bugs, I found some worms in mine 😝
