Broccoli With Sake Wasabi And Ginger Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Saute the broccoli over medium heat in sesame oil for 8 minutes.
• While broccoli is cooking, stir together the soy sauce, ginger, and sugar, stirring until sugar dissolves.
• Add the soy mixture to the broccoli along with the water, cover and simmer for 2 minutes more.
• Serve at once.

Steps:

• Bring the water and salt to a boil. Cook the broccoli until it's crisp-tender and still a bright green in color. Drain, and refresh very briefly with cold running water. (Note: you can skip this step if you're not in a hurry and have time to cool the broccoli.).
• In the meantime, mix together all the remaining ingredients except the wasabi in a small pan, and stir over a low heat until the sugar is melted. Let cool, and add the wasabi, reserving 1/2 tsp or so. Mix well until the wasabi is dissolved.
• Pour the sauce over the broccoli and mix well. Serve at room temperature or chilled, optionally with a little additional wasabi on the side for people to mix into the broccoli as they eat it (if they really like wasabi).

Steps:

• In a steamer place the stems on the bottom, slice 3 thin slices of ginger, place over stems and top with broccoli florets. Steam broccoli for 5 minutes.
• Grate the rest of the ginger, there should be about 2 teaspoons. Mix the ginger with soy, vinegar, and sesame oil, and toss with broccoli (remove the ginger slices before serving). Arrange on platter, top with red pepper, scallions and sesame seeds

Steps:

• Combine broth, sake, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch and sugar in a bowl & set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick wok or skillet over medium heat; add oil. Once the oil is warm, add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the broccoli (and any other vegetables if desired) and stir-fry for 3 minutes or so, until slightly tender. Add the sauce mixture and stir constantly until sauce boils and thickens. Serve once sauce and broccoli reach desired thickness and tenderness.

Steps:

• Cut broccoli into 1-inch flowerets. Trim and peel stems and cut into 1/4-inch slices.
• In a 10-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and cook gingerroot and garlic, swirling skillet occasionally, until just golden. With a slotted spoon transfer gingerroot and garlic to paper towels to drain.
• Add broccoli to skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until browned well, about 5 minutes. In a small bowl stir together water, soy sauce, and vinegar. Add mixture to skillet and cook until most liquid is evaporated, about 1 minute. Serve broccoli sprinkled with gingerroot and garlic.

Steps:

• Prepare wok or steamer with boiling water. Blend wasabi with sake in bowl; stir in ginger and juices.
• Stir in butter until blended. Pack into a ramekin and use immediately; or roll into a 1 inch cylinder and chill or freeze.

• In a serving bowl, toss broccoli with wasabi butter to taste.
