Broccolini Salad with Gorgonzola and Pistachios
veganeveryday.blogspot.com
1 bunch broccolini
1 teaspoon minced shallot
1/2 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon peanut or grape seed oil
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 ounce aged Gorgonzola (may substitute other firm blue cheese)
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped salted pistachios
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Wash the broccolini. Cut off and discard the tough ends of the stalks. Transfer to the boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes, until al dente, depending on the size of the stalks. Drain, and run under cold running water until cool. Blot dry and transfer to a shallow bowl. Whisk together the shallot, mustard, lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Pour over broccolini and toss to coat evenly. Arrange broccolini on a serving dish. Crumble the cheese over the midsection. Just before serving, sprinkle with the pistachios. From The Washington Post, November 21, 2010
