Critical Success Points

  • Blanch the broccoli only 2–3 minutes to keep it crisp.
  • Shock and thoroughly dry the broccoli before adding the sauce.
  • Toss the broccoli with the sesame‑garlic sauce while it is still slightly warm for maximum flavor absorption.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle boiling water with care to avoid burns.
  • Use oven mitts or a towel when removing the pot from the stove.
