Broccoli And Broccoli Stem Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the broccoli: Steam the broccoli according to the package directions.
• Add the thyme, garlic and zest to a large bowl and brush or rub the ingredients against the bottom and sides of the bowl. Add the steamed broccoli and toss. Refrigerate until chilled.
• For the dressing: In a medium bowl, add the mayonnaise, sriracha, lemon juice, sugar and some black pepper. Whisk until the sugar dissolves.
• For the salad: Add the red onions, raisins and cranberries to the bowl with the dressing. Stir to combine.
• Discard the thyme from the broccoli. Add the dressing and gently fold until the broccoli is evenly coated. Serve chilled or at room temperature sprinkled with the almonds.

Steps:

• cut cooked broccoli into florets and place in large bowl. add the potatoes and celery.
• mix vinegar, oil, salt and pepper together in small bowl. pour over broccoli and toss to evenly coat.
• season with salt, pepper and paprika.
• sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the sliced shallot under cold water and transfer to a large bowl.
• Cut the stalks away from the broccoli heads. Using a knife or vegetable peeler, remove the fibrous outer layer of the stalks so its light green insides emerge; compost or discard the outer layer. Thinly slice the stalks crosswise, then thinly slice the heads into bite-size pieces. (A mix of shapes and sizes adds texture to the salad, so chop up the broccoli a few ways; there's no one right way to go about it.) Transfer to the large bowl as you go, then transfer any loose bits from the cutting board to the bowl.
• Season the broccoli generously with salt and pepper, then add the almonds, pickled peppers, olives, oil, vinegar and provolone. Toss vigorously with a spoon until everything is combined and the broccoli is shiny with oil.
• Taste and adjust seasonings with salt, pepper, oil and vinegar as needed. Let sit at least 10 minutes before serving. The salad improves with age as its flavors meld, and it can be refrigerated for up to 4 days. Before serving, bring to room temperature and adjust salt, pepper, oil and vinegar to taste, as flavors change in the fridge.

Steps:

• Cut broccoli florets from stem.
• Discard stem.
• Cut florets into smaller pieces and add to large bowl.
• Add chopped red onion.
• Combine mayonnaise, powdered sugar and wine vinegar in a separate bowl.
• Mix well.
• Add dressing to the broccoli and combine.
• Add sunflower seeds, bacon and raisins.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour prior to serving.
• If the salad seems too "dry" for the amount of broccoli, make a half batch of the dressing ingredients and mix into the salad for an extra creamy batch.
• You may substitute craisins in place of the raisins.
