Salt 2 small or medium broccoli with stalks (about 1 ½ pounds/700 grams) 7 tablespoons/103 milliliters olive oil, plus more for grilling 1 large Fresno chile, thinly sliced at an angle, seeds and all 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced lengthways 5 to 6 anchovies packed in oil, drained 1 large lemon, cut into 8 thin rounds and seeded, the rest squeezed for 1 teaspoon juice 1 ½ tablespoons flat-leaf parsley leaves, roughly chopped Flaky sea salt, for serving Add to Your Grocery List Ingredient Substitution Guide PREPARATION Bring a large saucepan of well-salted water to a boil over medium-high. Keep a large bowl of ice water next to it. Meanwhile, trim the broccoli so 2 inches/5 centimeters of stalk remain attached. Cut the broccoli in half lengthwise, then cut each half lengthwise again to give you 4 wedges per head. Blanch the broccoli by adding it to the boiling water and cooking for 3½ minutes, until softened. The stalks should retain a nice bite. Use a pair of tongs to remove the wedges and plunge them straight into the ice water to stop them from cooking further. Once completely cool, drain and dry them well, then place in a large bowl. Meanwhile, add 6 tablespoons/89 milliliters of oil, the chiles and garlic to a small frying pan and place it over medium heat. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the garlic is golden and the chiles start to become transparent. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the solids to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside to cool and crisp further. Add the anchovies to the pan and place over low heat. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, until an anchovy is soft enough to be easily squashed with the back of a spoon. Set aside to cool completely. Place a large, well-greased grill pan over high heat and ventilate your kitchen well. (See Tip for outdoor grilling.) Toss the broccoli gently with 1½ teaspoons olive oil. Once the pan is very hot, grill the broccoli in 2 batches, turning so that all the flat sides have nice grill marks, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer to a tray to cool down. Grill the lemon rounds for 1½ minutes per side, until nicely charred, then transfer to a chopping board. When cool enough to handle, finely chop the lemon (skin and all) and transfer to a small bowl along with the lemon juice, parsley and remaining 1½ teaspoons olive oil. Mix well and set aside. Once the broccoli has cooled, top with the anchovy oil mixture and toss gently to combine. Arrange on a large serving platter and top evenly with the charred lemon mixture. Lastly, sprinkle over the fried chile and garlic and the flaked salt. Tip You can grill the broccoli and lemon slices at the same time on an outdoor charcoal or gas grill heated to medium-high (450 degrees). Grill (covered if using a gas grill), turning occasionally, until charred, about 10 minutes for the broccoli and about 3 minutes for the lemon. Have you cooked this?

That recipe uses Caper Brine, Nutritional Yeast, Mustard, Garlic, and White Miso paste for a *very* rich and delicious flavor profile that (to my tastes, and I eat seafood and vegetables) works even better than anchovies and well mimics the rich, salty, briny anchovy vibe. 159 This is helpful

LENTIL DIP Warning: You must use French Lentils. Not brown. Not red. Just French. Go to TJs and get the light blue box. These are French, and they really speed up the prep time. . Takes 10 minutes to make. Makes about 1 cup. Ingredients: 2 tablespoons walnuts (toasted are even better--350 degrees for 8 minutes only—or just roast them up in a fying pan) 1 cup cooked French lentils (TJ package is perfect if you are doubling the recipe) 2 mushrooms, sliced. Baby Bellas or portobellos are best. 2 garlic cloves, chopped 1 tablespoon of tamari sauce (lower sodium) **updated 11/22/11 (I inadvertently left this out and it worked fine) 1 tablespoon whole grain Dijon mustard 1 canned chipotle pepper, seeded, with just a teeny tiny bit of adobo sauce (optional, but very good. Better try 1/2 at a time if you're not to sure of the heat. (I do not used this pepper and it works fine) \ Preparation: 1. Mix all the ingredients in a food processor, or a VitaMix until smooth & creamy. Was really hard to get out of the vitamix. A food processor is much easier to clean--and easier to remove the spread. 3. Use as a sandwich spread, or as a dip with lentil chips, carrots, crackers, or crusty bread. 4. If using as a sandwich spread, top with roasted red peppers, or tomato, lettuce, sprouts, or a little schmear of avocado. Keeps in a sealed container for 5-7 days in the fridge.
