Ingredients: |
Blanch the broccoli and plunge into ice cold water to stop the cooking. Drain and set aside. To prepare the teriyaki sauce, dilute the arrowroot in 2 tablespoons of cold water. Heat the remaining water, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Add the honey and stir to dissolve. Add the arrowroot mixture and the pepper. Continue stirring to thicken. There should be about 2/3 cup sauce. Toss the broccoli with 1/3 cup of sauce and serve.
Refrigerate the remaining sauce and use with other steamed or stir "fried" vegetables.
Recipe yields 5 cups (5 servings).
