Turnip Greens Salad with Toasted Sunflower Seeds

Usually I make a greens salad with toasted sesame seeds (goma-ae) but I happened to have some sunflower seeds today so I thought I would try a "sunflower-ae" instead. It came out so toasty and crunchy! I think you'll like this recipe too ^^ You can use any kind of greens like spinach, komatsuna, or other asian greens too.

Steps

15 mins
  1. 1

    Wash the turnip greens well to remove any dirt. Cut in half so you have the thicker stem and the leaf separated. Bring a big pot of water to a boil and blanch the stems for 1-2 minutes and the leaves for 30 sec. - 1 minute until bright green and just a little tender. Remove from boiling water and dunk in cold water right away to stop the cooking.

  2. 2

    Squeeze out the water from the cooled down greens. Cut into 1 or 2 cm pieces. Put in a large bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp to 1/2 tsp salt (you want it just a little bit salt flavor because you'll add soy sauce later).

  3. 3

    Next toast the sunflower seeds! In a dry frying pan with no oil, toast the seeds over medium low until they start to crackle a little and get some color. Be careful not to burn - they can toast quickly!

  4. 4

    With a mortar & pestle (suribachi) or food processor, crush the seeds into small pieces, but don't make them all into a powder.

  5. 5

    Put the sunflower seeds into the bowl with the greens and toss to mix. Add 1 tsp sugar and 1 tsp soy sauce. Toss and taste. Add a little more soy sauce (or salt) if needed.

  6. 6

    If you have a yuzu or lemon, you can try adding some of the zest into the greens too!
