Sesame Broccoli


4 cups fresh broccoli florets
3 Tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tsp Asian (dark) sesame oil
1 Tbsp grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tsp packed brown sugar
1 Tbsp black sesame seeds
1 Tbsp white sesame seeds

Put the broccoli in a steamer basket; set in a saucepan over 1"
of boiling water. 
Cover tightly and steam until crisp-tender, 4-5 minutes.

(Instead of steaming, combine the broccoli and 1/4 cup water in 
a large microwaveable bowl.  Cover with plastic wrap, the prick a 
few holes in the plastic.  Microwave on high until crisp-tender, 2-3
minutes, drain)

Transfer the broccoli to a medium bowl.
Meanwhile, to make the dressing, whisk together the soy sauce,
sesame oil, ginger and brown sugar in a small bowl.
Add the dressing to the broccoli; toss to coat.
Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve at once.
