Puede que sea uno de los vegetales más temidos por los niños y podríamos decir que no tiene término medio, a quienes les gusta lo aman y a quien no les gusta lo odian. A pesar de esto está considerado el vegetal con mayor valor nutritivo por la variedad de nutrientes que aporta a nuestro cuerpo. Si aún no lo has adivinado, estamos hablando del brócoli.
El brócoli, este vegetal en forma de árbol diminuto que puede ser de color blanquinoso o casi morado o en tonos verdes, dependiendo de su variedad, es procedente de los países del sur de Europa, más concretamente de Italia. Se sabe que los romanos ya cosechaban brócoli y lo consumen en su dieta.
Los nutrientes que nos aporta el brócoli tienen consecuencias muy positivas para nuestro organismo. A continuación, te dejamos algunos de estos beneficios, aquellos por los que más destaca y las consecuencias que tienen para nuestro organismo.
El brócoli contiene vitaminas A, B, C, E, K. Pero, ¿esto qué supone para nuestro organismo?
Como el Calcio, Potasio, Hierro, Zinc… Los minerales tienen muchos efectos en nuestra salud, desde la creación y mantenimiento de nuestros huesos, cerebro y mantenimiento de nuestro sistema inmune.
Como la mayoría de vegetales, destacan por su aporte en fibra. La necesidad de la fibra en nuestro organismo se debe a que es la que ayuda a regular el funcionamiento de nuestro aparato digestivo, donde recibimos los nutrientes, los digerimos y empiezan a distribuirse por nuestro cuerpo.
Estos micronutrientes son compuestos antioxidantes que tienen su labor en mantener los tejidos de nuestro organismo, esto supone mantener la salud de nuestro organismo.
Los fitoquímicos se encuentran normalmente en alimentos vegetales y se ha descubierto recientemente que consiguen prevenir enfermedades graves como el cáncer.
Sabiendo sus propiedades, ¿sabes cuál es la mejor forma de cocinarlo para respetar sus beneficios y sacar su máximo sabor?
El brócoli se puede consumir crudo o cocinado de infinitas formas, las más comunes: al vapor, salteado, hervido…
Si lo consumes crudo te aseguras de que sus propiedades queden intactas, pero si prefieres cocinarlo la mejor forma es hacerlo al vapor o si lo hierves evitar que las flores o cabezas del brócoli se sumerjan en el agua.
Con el fin de mantener todas sus propiedades, puedes encontrar miles de recetas de brócoli, aquí te proponemos diferentes formas de cocinarlo:
En ensalada César. Utilizar las flores del brócoli desmenuzado como base de la ensalada y le puedes añadir tus ingredientes favoritos y por supuesto, la salsa césar.
Con ajo y especias al gusto para darle tu toque. Al cocinarlo al vapor añade un par de ajos y condimentarlo con tus especias favoritas (pimienta, hierbas provenzales…).
Con gambas y salsa de soja. Salteando las gambas para dar sabor y a continuación el brócoli, para sazonarlo, en lugar de utilizar sal, utilizamos salsa de soja que le dará un toque diferente
Puede ser el condimento de tu carne favorita. Con tan solo 4 minutos en agua hirviendo tendrás tu brócoli listo.
Con bechamel y bacón. Puedes marcar primero el brócoli y el bacón, o ponerlo al horno en crudo, como prefieras para que la bechamel lo cueza todo junto.
En el Asador City Wok de Málaga, utilizamos este ingrediente en nuestros platos para dar sabor y equilibrar nuestros platos.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
