  1. Blanch: Boil the broccoli florets in a pot of water for 2-3 minutes. Transfer the broccoli to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain the blanched broccoli, and dry it as much as possible to remove excess water.
  2. Freeze: Arrange the florets in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the tray in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until the broccoli is frozen solid.
  3. Store: Place the tray in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until the broccoli is frozen solid. Label the bags or containers with the date and contents, and store them in the freezer for up to 12 months.
