I’ve been trying to get more veggies, for a multitude of reasons, but no matter how I cook broccoli, it stinks up the whole house. Steamed, baked, pan fried. If it were just me I’d probably deal with it, but my partner has a sensitive nose. Any ideas? I don’t love it raw, but it’s still pretty good.

    Smells fine raw, just makes a stink when I cook it. Already washed. Also KY US

      KY US

      there’s your problem.

      But in all seriousness—broccoli shouldn’t be stinking up your house. I call shenanigans.

        I mean the rest of the thread corroborates 🤷 not sure what else to say.

        First result in google:

        The sulforaphane compound in some cruciferous vegetable molecules. The sulfur odor indicates a vegetable possesses excellent health properties. Cruciferous (fibrous) veggies include kale, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and many others.

        This is far too serious an issue to invoke shenanigans!

            To be honest, I thought they were going more for sarcasm than idiocy 🤷

              Idk about that lol. Maybe. Sometimes it’s hard to tell. They seemed serious though but who knows.

          When I googled “broccoli smell” every single result stated “you’re overcooking it” so I guess that’s what you’re doing. I have literally never experienced this so I guess I win at cooking broccoli.

          Thus I rescind my suspicion of shenanigans and submit instead INCOMPETENCE

            I’ll take incompetence. Far more likely to be a true accusation
