<p>Broccoli is fantastic. You can put it into so many different recipes, and it absorbs the flavor of whatever sauce you put it in well, while having a texture between a crisp snap or a tender softness, depending on how you cook it, so it's a vegetable you can use in a wide range of recipes without ever getting tired of it.

</blockquote><p>I like broccoli, but it tastes (and smells) absolutely vile when overcooked. Not all mothers can cook well, so I suspect a lot of people picked up a dislike for this vegetable when it was forced on them when they were young, similar to green peppers and liver (both of which also have terrible texture, taste and smell when overcooked).</p>
