Description
This salad is made from uncooked broccoli tossed with an assertive garlic, sesame, chile and cumin-seed vinaigrette slicked with good extra-virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar. The acid “cooks” the florets a little as ceviche does fish. After an hour, the broccoli softens as if blanched, turning bright emerald, and soaking up all the intense flavors of the dressing. You’ll be making this one again.

1 1/2teaspoons red wine vinegar 1teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste 2heads broccoli, 1 pound each, cut into bite-size florets 3/4cup extra virgin olive oil 4fat garlic cloves, minced 2teaspoons cumin seeds 2teaspoons roasted (Asian) sesame oil Large pinch crushed red pepper flakes.
