Why Roast Broccolini?

Roasting broccolini brings out a lovely nutty flavour. The tips go slightly crispy, the stalks stay juicy, and the seasoning clings beautifully. When you add Terrablendz Granite Salt & Pepper Seasoning, every bite delivers a burst of bold Australian native flavour.

Saltbush adds a mellow, savoury depth, while pepperberry offers a subtle heat and a fruity twist. The seasoning isn't just salty—it’s layered, aromatic, and distinctly Aussie.

FAQs

What makes native salt and pepper seasoning different?
Native seasonings like the ones in our Granite blend use Australian-grown herbs. Saltbush and pepperberry add unique flavour profiles not found in traditional salt and pepper. Saltbush is earthy and umami-rich, while pepperberry adds warmth and light spice.

Can I use this seasoning on other vegetables?
Absolutely. Try it on roast potatoes, carrots, zucchini, or pumpkin. It works beautifully with grilled meats too.

How do you keep roasted broccolini from going soggy?
Don’t overcrowd the tray. Use high heat and space them out in a single layer. Make sure they’re dry before roasting.

Should I use the fan-forced setting on my oven for roasting broccolini?
Yes. Fan-forced ovens roast more evenly. Use 200°C fan-forced, or 220°C if using conventional heat.

How much seasoning should I use?
Start with 1–1½ teaspoons per 400–500g of broccolini. You can always add more after roasting.

Tips for Making Roasted Broccolini with Native Salt & Pepper Even Better

Granite Salt & Pepper Seasoning (with Saltbush & Pepperberry)

Choose fresh broccolini: The brighter and firmer, the better.

Add garlic: A crushed clove tossed in with the oil gives a nice edge.

Top with parmesan: For an indulgent finish, grate a little parmesan over just before serving.

Use quality olive oil: A good olive oil helps the seasoning stick and adds flavour.

Try it with lemon myrtle salt: Mix a small pinch of lemon myrtle with sea salt for a citrusy twist alongside the Granite seasoning.
