Although the stem somewhat resembles asparagus, the two vegetables are not related. The small broccoli-like flowerette at the end of the baby broccoli reveals its true heritage. Marketed as Broccolini in bunches of about 20 stalks, baby broccoli is available year round in gourmet markets and some supermarkets. Baby broccoli may be stored for up to 1 week in the refrigerator crisper. To prepare this mild-flavored green vegetable, just trim off and discard a slice from the stem end-no need to peel the stem--and cook the whole stalk in boiling salted water or a steamer for 2 to 3 minutes. Baby broccoli may be used in any dish that would normally include the larger version. It is especially good cooked to crisp-tender and served as an appetizer, or grilled for 1 to 2 minutes.
