Miso is a super-healthy fermented soy product. Use dark miso for heartier winter fare, and light miso for summer soups, dips, and sauces.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons dark miso

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons toasted white or black sesame seeds

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

  • 1/2 cup rice or soy milk

  • 4 cups broccoli florets, cut from about 2 pounds of whole broccoli heads

  • 2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper

Directions

  • In a small bowl, mix miso, sesame seeds, lemon juice, and oil. Slowly add the milk, stirring well. For a thinner sauce, add more liquid.
  • Arrange broccoli florets in a steamer basket over a small amount of water. Steam florets until bright green and just tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer to serving dish; drizzle with sauce and garnish with red pepper.
