Categories     side-dish

Time 33m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 head garlic, peeled (about 16 cloves)
1 cup good olive oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 stalks broccoli, cut into florets (8 cups of florets)
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Put the garlic cloves and oil in a small heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook uncovered over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until the garlic is browned and tender. Turn off the heat and add the red pepper flakes and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Immediately pour into a heat-proof container to stop the cooking. Allow to cool to room temperature.
  • For the salad, blanch the broccoli florets in a large pot of boiling salted water for 2 to 3 minutes, until crisp-tender. Drain well and immerse immediately into a large bowl of ice water until the broccoli is cooled. This process stops the cooking and sets the bright green color. Drain well.
  • In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup of the oil used to cook the garlic, the soy sauce, and 8 or more cloves of cooked garlic. Taste for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

A new recipe a neighbor gave us. What a hit with my family. Just the right mixture of garlic and cashews with our favorite side dish, broccoli. And, so very easy to make!! If in a pinch, you could probably use frozen broccoli too, but I haven't tried.

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.
  • Transfer sesame seeds to a large bowl and add the oil, miso, soy sauce and vinegar; mix or whisk well.
  • Once the water is boiling, blanch the broccoli by cooking it until bright green, about 1 minute, then drain and transfer to the ice water to cool. Drain well and pat dry.
  • 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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellow or wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. If the florets are too large, cut them in half or quarters.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but not mushy. Overcooked broccoli will lose its nutrients and flavor.
  • Use a good quality soy sauce: The soy sauce is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a soy sauce that is made with whole soybeans and has a rich, savory flavor.
  • Add other vegetables: Feel free to add other vegetables to this dish, such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers.

Conclusion:

Broccoli with soy sauce is a simple but delicious dish that is packed with nutrients. It's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a good source of protein and fiber. This dish is also very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your own taste. Whether you like your broccoli cooked tender-crisp or slightly charred, or whether you want to add other vegetables or not, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
