Broccoli can be eaten cooked or raw — both are perfectly healthy but provide different nutrient profiles. Raw or cooked, broccoli is an excellent source of vitamin C; a half a cup of cooked broccoli provides 84% of the reference daily intake (RDI) — more than one-half orange.
Handling Tips
To store, mist the unwashed broccoli heads, wrap loosely in damp paper towels, and refrigerate. Use within 2 to 3 days. Do not store in a sealed container or plastic bag.
