To ensure the broccoli in your salad has a pleasant texture—tender, crunchy, and juicy—blanch it for a couple of minutes beforehand, until the florets turn bright green. The creamy, tart sour milk dressing complements the broccoli's flavor beautifully, while the sunflower seeds add extra crunch and a nutty flavor.
