Hey, it's Francis.

The thing about summer cooking is that it's supposed to be easy.

This episode from last August is mostly about that and about a special place where summer cooking is all about putting in the work. Have fun. I'm Frances Lamb, and this is the splendid table from 8 p.m.

Here is a genius summer cooking tip that I came up with this year.

Microwave your broccoli.

I mean, what I mean is nine times out of ten, I cook my broccoli by roasting it in a really hot oven because, you know,

everyone loves the crispy frizzled edges at the end of the florets. But right now, I truly cannot care enough about frizzled broccoli ends that have a box blasting 425 degrees into my home,

so I started microwaving it. Three minutes at a time until it's cooked, and then olive oil and salt and pepper, and then I

threw it under the broiler for a couple minutes just to char the tops.

It, okay, it is not the same at all, but it's good enough, and I don't have to pass out

from heat stroke.

So, hey, that's a win.
