How to Make Broccoli Ring

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 pound of broccoli florets and cook until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Drain well and let cool slightly.
  3. Chop the cooled broccoli into small pieces.
  4. In a food processor or blender, puree the broccoli until almost smooth.
  5. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli puree with 4 large eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg.
  6. Generously butter a 4-cup ring mold.
  7. Pour the broccoli mixture into the prepared ring mold.
  8. Cover the mold tightly with aluminum foil.
  9. Place the ring mold in a larger roasting pan.
  10. Carefully pour boiling water into the roasting pan until it reaches about 1 inch up the sides of the ring mold.
  11. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the custard is set and no longer jiggles in the center.
  12. Let the broccoli ring cool for 10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving platter.
  13. Fill the center of the broccoli ring with your favorite creamed onions and serve immediately.
