["Put a big pot of water on to boil for the pasta.", "Separate the broccoli into small trees by pulling them apart. Trim off the woody stems of your trees so you can break them up.", "Put the broccoli florets (trees) into a pot and add water enough to just cover the tops.", "The broccoli should cook about 5 minutes once the water comes to a boil. Drain.", "When the pasta water boils, put 4 pinches of salt into the pot and add pasta. Cook to al dente (that's Italian for \"done but still with a bite to it\"")
