The ingredients needed to make Turnip Greens Salad with Toasted Sunflower Seeds:
  1. Prepare 1 large bunch turnip greens, spinach komatsuna or other asian greens
  2. Get 6-7 Tbsp (60 g) unsalted, shelled sunflower seeds
  3. Take 1/4 tsp salt + more if needed
  4. Get 1 tsp sugar
  5. Take 1-1 1/2 tsp soy sauce
  6. Take Optional
  7. Make ready 1 tsp yuzu or lemon zest
Instructions to make Turnip Greens Salad with Toasted Sunflower Seeds:
  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. 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. 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. With a mortar & pestle (suribachi) or food processor, crush the seeds into small pieces, but don't make them all into a powder.
  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. If you have a yuzu or lemon, you can try adding some of the zest into the greens too!
