Broccoli & Egg Salad with Sesame Dressing
Tender-crisp blanched broccoli and creamy boiled eggs tossed in a nutty, umami-rich sesame dressing.
Ingredients
- 1 head of broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- 2 - 3 eggs, boiled and halved or quartered
Sesame Dressing
- 3 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
- 3 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp honey
- ½ tbsp soy sauce
- 1½ tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Method
-
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch for about 2 minutes, until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Pat dry.
-
Grind the toasted sesame seeds in a spice grinder until coarsely powdered — you want some texture, not a paste. Transfer to a bowl and whisk in the soy sauce, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
-
Arrange the broccoli and eggs in a bowl. Pour the dressing over and toss gently to coat. Serve right away, or let it sit for a few minutes to let the flavors meld.
