Swiss Chard With Sesame Sauce
- 1 bunch Swiss chard
- 1 tbsp Toasted sesame seeds
- 1 tsp Soy sauce (dark)
- 1 tsp Enzyme juice (kumquat)
- 1/2 tsp (or sugar)
- Wash the Swiss chard well.
- If the stems are thick, cut slits in them lengthwise halfway up from the bottom.
- Cut into 4 cm lengths.
- Fill a pot with water about 2.5 cm deep, add the Swiss chard, cover with a lid and steam-boil it.
- My mother taught me to boil it this way with a little water, rather than a lot.
- It will cook in about 3 minutes.
- Drain in a colander and squeeze out the liquid when cool.
- The liquid will be bright red.
- Put the toasted sesame seeds in a mortar and microwave for a short time to dry them.
- Grind the sesame seeds, then add the soy sauce and enzyme juice.
- Mix it well, so it's evenly combined.
- Add the well squeezed Swiss chard, break it up and coat it with the sesame sauce.
- When it's lightly coated, it's done.
- Blending the sesame seeds and flavorings together well before mixing them with the vegetables results in a nicer finish and the vegetables don't look as wilted.
