Salad of Cold Leafy Greens With Sesame Oil and Soy Sauce

Adapted from James Peterson's book, "Vegetables". I served this with barbecued shrimp and carrot/parsnip latkes for a great 'fusion' meal!

• Ready In: 25 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 2  lbs swiss chard or 2  lbs spinach or 2  lbs  beet leaves, stems removed, steamed or 2  lbs  boiled until tender 5-10 minutes and refreshed under cold running water
• 2  teaspoons  dark sesame oil
• 1  tablespoon dark soy sauce, plus
• 1  teaspoon dark soy sauce (to taste)
• 2  teaspoons sesame seeds

Directions

1. Gently squeeze the cooked greens to get rid of most of their water. If the leaves are large, chop them 3 or 4 times to make them easier to eat.
2. Mix the sesame oil, 1 T. of the soy sauce and the sesame seeds. Add to the squeezed spinach and toss. Taste and add the additional 1 teaspoons soy sauce to taste, if necessary.
3. Chill before serving.
