Broccoli Aspic
Ingredients
Preparation
1
Rinse the agar bars under cold water until soft. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine the agar bars or flakes, the water or stock, shoyu and ginger. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for a few minutes or until the agar is thoroughly dissolved. Taste and correct the seasoning.

Separate the broccoli into florets. You should have 2 cups. Steam florets briefly, just until they turn green in color. Steam the red pepper for 5 minutes. Using your finger or a chopstick, push the broccoli into the thickening aspic in a pleasing pattern; intersperse with the red pepper. Chill until well set, about 3 to 4 hours.
