SESAME BROCCOLI, REALLY..IT'S GOOD!



Sesame Broccoli, Really..it's Good! image

The dish is a nice and easy change from the norm, and quite different from some of the other broccoli recipes I have seen here. Try it, you might like it as much as we do! Due to a great suggestion from a reviewer, I have added toasting the sesame seeds, a marvelous idea! Also, PLEASE don't substitute the sesame oil as one review did here, you loose the entire flavor of this great dish! This is an adopted recipe and the above comments were made before I inherited it. Now having made this dish, I can concurr: it's a sesame oil that turns your head and gets your taste buds going in this recipe, and toasting the seeds also adds fuller flavour. I'm delighted to have adopted this recipe and will be making it often:) I hope that you will enjoy it too!

SESAME BROCCOLI



Sesame Broccoli image

Mild broccoli gets energized by this textured, rich dressing spiked with sweet miso and soy sauce. Crushed toasted sesame seeds create the intense flavor base for this rich, super nutty sauce. The dish is a great side to accompany any grilled or roasted protein; it can be made a few hours in advance and is equally tasty chilled or at room temperature. Any leftovers can be chopped and tossed with warm pasta and grated Parmesan the next day.

Categories     vegetables, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
Ice, as needed
1/3 cup toasted white sesame seeds
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
1 tablespoon white miso
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1 1/2 pounds broccoli florets (1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces, about 10 cups)
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and prepare an ice bath.
  • While the water comes to a boil, in a small nonstick skillet over low heat, refresh the toasted sesame seeds, stirring frequently, until oils are released and seeds are warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and grind until half the seeds are coarsely crushed. Alternatively, pulse once or twice in a food processor until half of the seeds are crushed.

  • Add the cooked broccoli to the dressing, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate and serve chilled.

SAUTéED BROCCOLI WITH TOASTED GARLIC, ORANGE AND SESAME



Sautéed Broccoli With Toasted Garlic, Orange and Sesame image

Broccoli was kicked around for years before anyone decided to have fun with it. For a while broccoli lay spent and lifeless, then went irritably crisp. This recipe advances at high speed with admirable results. I toasted garlic slivers in olive oil until sweet and nutty, added oyster sauce to round the edges, then a rustle of sesame seeds and a wisp of orange to pull the whole thing into focus.

Categories     dinner, quick, vegetables, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium head broccoli
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/2 tablespoons thinly sliced garlic cloves
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange peel

Steps:

  • Rinse broccoli. Cut off thick stem where it meets slender stalks, and reserve. With sharp paring knife separate stalks into florets, leaving stems about 1 1/2 inches long on each. Cut pieces in two lengthwise and lay flat-side down. Cut each piece lengthwise in two and repeat until you have 3-inch-long carved floret and stem pieces of approximately equal thickness (about 1/2-inch) top to bottom. Peel tough skin from stems, and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch medallions. There should be 12 ounces of broccoli, about 7 cups. Set aside.
  • Toast sesame seeds in large nonstick skillet over low heat until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to small bowl, and set aside.
  • Place olive oil and garlic in skillet over low heat. Toast garlic, stirring frequently, until garlic is deep golden brown, about 6 minutes. Add pepper flakes to hot oil, and stir. Transfer to small bowl, and set aside. Toss broccoli, salt and 1/4 cup water in same skillet, cover and set over high heat. Cook until broccoli is tender, shaking pan and stirring once, 4 minutes. Uncover skillet (water should be gone), and toss. Stir in garlic and oil, oyster sauce and orange peel. Transfer to warm serving platter, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
