Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family, and is closely related to cauliflower. Its cultivation originated in Italy. Broccolo, its Italian name, means “cabbage sprout.” Because of its different components, broccoli provides a range of tastes and textures, from soft and flowery (the floret) to fibrous and crunchy (the stem and stalk). Broccoli contains glucosinolates, phytochemicals which break down to compounds called indoles and isothiocyanates (such as sulphoraphane). Broccoli also contains the carotenoid, lutein. Broccoli is an excellent source of the vitamins K, C, and A, as well as folate and fiber. Broccoli is a very good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the vitamins B6 and E.

Betty demonstrates how to make Dark Chocolate Cranberry Cookies. This cookie recipe is from Gail Simmons, a judge on the TV show “Top Chef.”

It is a delicious and gluten-free recipe.

Dark Chocolate Cranberry Cookies

4 egg whites
½ tsp lemon juice
½ tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp salt
¾ cup sugar
12 oz. 70% to 72% cacao dark chocolate, melted and cooled
½ cup chopped walnuts, plus walnut halves for garnish
½ cup chopped dried cherries or cranberries

Preheat oven to 325°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites, lemon juice, vanilla and salt until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in chocolate, walnuts and cherries. Scrape half of batter into a large zip-top plastic bag. Cut a ¾-inch hole in one corner of bag. Pipe 2-inch cookies onto prepared cookie sheets. Repeat with remaining batter and a clean zip-top bag. Top each cookie with a walnut half. Bake 15 minutes or until outside is set and dry. Cool completely on sheet pans. Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Makes 36.

Enjoy! –Betty
