FRAGRANT SESAME DRESSING FOR ORZO SALAD

From a cookbook put out by a restaurant in Philadelphia called The Frog Commissary. The oil was reduced from the original recipe. This has a subtle sesame, orange, ginger flavor which goes well with flank steak or leg of lamb.

Fragrant Sesame Dressing for Orzo Salad image

Steps:

  • Cook orzo according to directions on box.
  • Mix all other ingredients and blend over pasta and chill.
  • Add raisins, shredded carrots, and pine nuts, and mix gently.
  • Note, this can be made 1 day ahead of when you plan to serve it, just don't add the carrots or pinenuts until just before serving so they will remain crunchy.

3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons sesame oil
1/2 cup rice vinegar or 1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon orange rind, grated
1 teaspoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Pour the broth into a heavy large saucepan. Cover the pan and bring the broth to a boil over high heat. Stir in the orzo. Cover partially and cook until the orzo is tender but still firm to the bite, stirring frequently, about 7 minutes. Drain the orzo through a strainer. Transfer the orzo to a large wide bowl and toss until the orzo cools slightly. Set aside to cool completely.
  • Toss the orzo with the beans, tomatoes, onion, basil, mint, and enough vinaigrette to coat. Season the salad, to taste, with salt and pepper, and serve at room temperature.
  • Mix the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually blend in the oil. Season the vinaigrette, to taste, with more salt and pepper, if desired.
  • Yield: 1 3/4 cups

4 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups orzo
1 (15-ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
1 1/2 cups red and yellow teardrop tomatoes or grape tomatoes, halved

LIGHT AND REFRESHING SESAME ORZO SALAD

This is something that I came up with to take to a cookout today. Grilled salmon and steak were served, and this went very well with it and was well-liked. This has a very delicate and subtle flavor (it was described by one person as "light and refreshing," which is where the name comes from). I wanted something with an Asian feel but I didn't want to make an Oriental coleslaw - I love those, but I just wasn't in the mood for anything that sweet or vinegar-y. The bulk of the flavor comes from the sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds, so I don't think those two ingredients should be substituted. This salad can be served at any temperature, but I do strongly recommend refrigerating overnight since it takes time for the flavor to fully develop. I liked the light taste and "dryness" of the dressing, but feel free to make up more dressing if your tastes are different than mine. This would also be good with rice in place of the orzo. This filled up a 2.5 quart serving bowl. Cook time is refrigerator time.

Steps:

  • Cook orzo pasta in boiling water for about 4 minutes.
  • Rinse with cold water and drain.

  • Add the broccoli, onions, bell pepper, peas, carrots, and sprouts to the bowl, and mix gently but thoroughly.
  • Add the dressing and mix again.
