To cook Bonipak Simply Fresh Broccoli Florets, you can steam them directly from frozen. Place the desired amount in a steamer basket over boiling water and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until tender-crisp. They can also be added directly to simmering sauces, soups, or casseroles during the last few minutes of cooking. For stir-fries, add them frozen to the hot pan with other ingredients and cook until tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain their texture and vibrant green color.

Unlike fresh broccoli, these frozen florets require no washing or trimming. They are already cut into bite-sized pieces, saving considerable preparation time.
