Steamed Broccoli

Cut up the broccoli into florets.

Boil a small amount of water in a pot, just enough to cover the bottom.

Place a colander over the pot of boiling water, ensuring the broccoli does not touch the water.

Cover the pot and steam the broccoli for 5-6 minutes.

Check the broccoli to ensure it has not turned mushy; it should be bright green and tender-crisp.

In a bowl, combine olive oil (about half a cup, adjusted for the amount of broccoli), granulated garlic (half a teaspoon to a tablespoon), and salt.

Add concentrated lemon juice to the mixture, noting that fresh lemon juice is preferred.

Blend the mixture using a small blender, food processor, or whisk for about a minute.

Pour the sauce over the steamed broccoli and toss to coat evenly.

Serve the broccoli hot.
