While most broccoli salads are served completely raw, I like to broil half of the broccoli just long enough to add a little char while keeping the crunch.

Ingredients
2heads broccoli,(about 1½ pounds), cut into florets
Preheat oven to broil. Arrange half of the broccoli florets in a singe layer on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet.
Broil the broccoli until parts are lightly charred, about 4 minutes. Remove and let cool. Add both the broiled broccoli and the raw broccoli to a large mixing bowl with the grapes and shallots.
In a small mixing bowl whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice and sugar until the sugar has completely dissolved. Add to the broccoli mixture and toss to combine.
Add the bacon and almonds then toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes then serve.
