I just made this recipe and had to share it with all of you peoples. The preparation calls for raw broccoli and the dressing basically ceviches the florets. Pretty rad stuff if you ask me. Bonus: your lunch won't smell like dog farts.*

Super easy prep, and simple to double or triple the serving size!

Broccoli Salad with Garlic and Sesame
 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 tsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp kosher salt, more to taste
  • 2 heads broccoli, 1 pound each, cut into bite-size florets
  • 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 2 tsp roasted sesame oil
  • Large pinch crushed red pepper flakes

PREPARATION

Step 1: 
In a large bowl, stir together the vinegar and salt. Add broccoli and toss to combine.

Step 2: 
In a large skillet, heat olive oil until hot, but not smoking. Add garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in sesame oil and pepper flakes. Pour mixture over broccoli and toss well. Let sit for at least 1 hour at room temperature or 2 hours in the fridge. Adjust seasonings (it may need more salt) and serve.

 

*Am I the only one that thinks leftover cooked broccoli smells like dog farts?
