Harvest Your Broccolini for Peak Flavor
Knowing when to harvest your broccolini is crucial for maximizing its peak flavor. Ideally, you'll want to take your broccolini heads when they are about 2-4 inches long and the florets are firm. At this stage, the green will have a vibrant emerald color and be tender to the touch. Avoid waiting too long, as overripe broccolini can become stringy.
