Broccoli And Wasabi Spread Recipes

BROCCOLI WITH WASABI SAUCE

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).

CREAMY BROCCOLI DIP

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to boil. Add the broccoli and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool. Pat dry. Alternatively, you can drain the broccoli and immediately add to the food processor (just chill the dip before serving).
• Transfer the broccoli to a food processor and add the mayonnaise, milk, parsley, chives, lime juice, dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Pulse to make a smooth dip. Transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped dill. Leftover broccoli dip will keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. (Makes about 1 1/2 cups of dip.)
• Serve with broccoli florets and ridged potato chips.
