722 Bantam Road, Bantam, CT
Phone: (860) 567-9878
Featuring his own homegrown vegetables and herbs in menus inspired by his father’s love for cooking, Gene created this amazing Broccoli Pecan Salad. Just one bite will convert avowed Broccoli haters into avid Broccoli aficionados. And it is raw Broccoli~the best ever for you! Our family cannot have dinner together without it. We love to make this exactly like Gene does, but some like to briefly steam the Broccoli ever so slightly first. If you decide to steam it first, plunge it into an ice bath to stop it from cooking further and to preserve its greenness. Drain and chill before making the salad. You can also change it up by adding dried cranberries. -

A Master Gardener, Mrs. Thurman has kept the ingredients without measurement: "this recipe can not be precise: only one's palate knows the right proportions." It is a startling, beautiful presentation. -
