Notes about this recipe

    Great side dish, and I have a feeling it's super adaptable. I made the sauce as written and used all the rest of the ingredients, but nothing else was measured in an exacting way. After blanching the broccoli (small heads cut into thin florets, not sprouting broccoli) and the green beans in salted water, then cooling them and draining, I charred them quickly in a hot cast iron skillet for a little more interest. The only other change I made was to toss in a large handful of grape tomatoes, which also went really well with the tahini sauce. I imagine this tahini sauce would be great as a kale salad dressing or in a carrot salad as well.

    Excellent. Made the recipe exactly as stated (subbing broccolini for sprouting broccoli), found it to be full of flavor.

    Delicious. I left the salt out of the dressing, and microwaved the veggies instead of blanching. This was easy to make and well received.

    I wanted to like this more than I did; it was good, but felt a little lacking. To be fair, I used only purple sprouting broccoli - no haricots verts or snow peas - and I think that made the dish a little less interesting. I may have also used too much broccoli, as the flavors of the dressing seemed to get a little lost in it. The dressing itself was quite good; I tasted it before dressing the broccoli, so perhaps my ratio of dressing to broccoli was just a bit off.
