Notes

Broccolini, a cross between broccoli and Chinese kale, is milder and sweeter than broccoli. Each long stem is topped by a loose floret that closely resembles broccoli; from floret to stem, broccolini is completely edible. Substitute chinese broccoli (gai larn) for the broccolini in this recipe, if you prefer.
