Carrot Greens with Sesame Dressing
Salad
Ingredients
1 bunch carrot greens washed and stemmed
3 tablespoons toasted and ground white sesame seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sake, mirin or rice vinegar
1/8 teaspoon sugar
Description
Really nice but doesn’t make much.
Need to eat immediately (ie do not keep well). A lot of work and not really worth it.
Directions
In a large pot of lightly salted boiling water, parboil carrot greens for 2 minutes.
Shock in ice water drain and squeeze dry.
Place in a new bowl of cold water and refrigerate overnight, changing water 2–3 times to eliminate bitter flavor.
Drain and squeeze again, then cut into 1/2 inch lengths.
In a medium bowl, dress carrot greens with sesame seeds, soy sauce, sake (mirin or rice vinegar), and sugar.
Allow greens to sit and marinate at least 1 hour before serving.
