Broccoli With Lime Shallot Dressing

1. 1

   Mix lime juice, zest, salt, pepper flakes and cumin in a small bowl, then whisk in oil until dressing is smooth. Stir in shallots and set aside.

2. 2

   Separate florets from stalks at points where the floret stems meet the broccoli stalks. Cut off the woody bottoms of the stalks and trim away 1/8 inch of outer peel.

3. 3

   Cut stalks in half lengthwise and then into bite-sized pieces.

4. 4

   Bring about 1 inch water and salt (1 teaspoon) to boil in a deep, wide pot.

5. 5

   Lower insert or basket with broccoli into pot so it rests above water; cover and simmer about 4 to 5 minutes until just tender.

6. 6

   Remove broccoli from the steamer and gently toss steamed broccoli with dressing. Transfer to serving dish and serve.
