DIRECTIONS:

Cut the bacon into small pieces and cook over medium heat just until crisp; drain on paper towels.

Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and blanch until bright green and slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Drain well, run under cold water to stop the cooking, and drain again.
