directions

  • Place sesame seeds in a small, dry skillet and toast, shaking the pan frequently, until lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
  • Rinse the broccoli and separate the florets from the stalks, reserving the stalks for another use.
  • Arrange the florets in a vegetable steamer basket or steamer insert. Bring about 1 inch of water to boil in a deep, wide pot. Lower the steamer into the pot, making sure it rests above the water. Cover and cook the broccoli until tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the cooked broccoli to a serving bowl and drizzle with the sesame oil.
  • Add sea salt to taste, and sesame seeds and stir to combine. Serve immediately.

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013. After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
