Serves: 6
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (Kikkoman recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (Kadoya recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • freshly ground black pepper (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons roasted sesame seeds, divided
  • 1 pound (about 8 cups) broccoli florets
Preparation
  1. Steam the broccoli florets until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Cool on a plate in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes or so.
  2. Whisk soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey and a few grinds of fresh black pepper in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of roasted sesame seeds. Set aside.
  3. In a large shallow bowl, toss broccoli with dressing (you may not need all of the dressing). Toss to coat all of the florets. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or cover and refrigerate if you prefer to serve it cold, or at a later time during the day. When ready to serve, toss once again then transfer the broccoli to a large low-sided serving bowl. Pour the dressing over the broccoli and sprinkle the remaining sesame seeds over the top.
