Broccolini and Balsamic Vinaigrette
2006, Barefoot Contessa at Home, All Rights Reserved

Ingredients
Kosher salt
4 bunches broccolini (1 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup good olive oil
11/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon

Directions
In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water and 2

tablespoons salt to a boil. Remove and discard the bottom third of the broccolini
stems. If some stems are very thick, cut them in half lengthwise.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar,
mustard, garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and the pepper. When the water comes to a
full boil, add the broccolini, return to a boil, and cook over high heat for 2
minutes, until the stalks are just tender. Drain well and place in a large bowl.
Pour enough dressing over the broccolini to moisten and toss well. Splash with a
generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice, sprinkle with salt, and serve warm or
hot.
