Default How does one prepare broccoli for freezing ?

I pulled in a mess of broccoli tonight. I would like to freeze it. I
read somewhere that you blanch it for 3-5 minutes, emerse
in cold water til heat is gone and the one must dry it before
freezing ( water on it will turn it soggy ? ). How does one dry it.
I would like it as fresh as possible and the idea of leaving it out
to air dry after blanching it seems to defeat the idea of freshness ..

Any suggestions ?

TIA
