3 broccoli crowns, cut into florets (or purchase broccoli florets already trimmed in your produce section – they usually come in a bag)
1/4 C. mirin
1/4 C. soy sauce (low sodium)
1 Tbls. rice vinegar
1 tsp. sesame oil
1 tsp. honey (substitute vegan alternative like maple syrup or sugar, if desired)
1/4 tsp. garlic chili paste (or use your favorite chili sauce)
Garnish: sesame seeds
Instructions
Blanch broccoli florets in pot of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and submerge florets in a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and keep them green.
Drain broccoli and add to a bowl.
In separate small bowl (I just use a measuring cup) combine dressing ingredients and whisk to combine.
Pour dressing over broccoli and toss to coat (you probably won’t need all the dressing).
