Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs broccoli
3/4 lb mushroom, thinly sliced
1 cup green onion, thinly sliced (including tops)
1 cup celery, thinly sliced
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 cup salad oil
salt
pepper
Directions:
1. Rinse broccoli. Cut off and discard base of stalks, leaving about 3 1/2 inches of stalks below flowerets. Cut stalk and flowerets lengthwise into spears. Cut flowerets into bite-size pieces; peel stalks, then cut diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
2. Steam broccoli: arrange spears or pieces on a rack. Steam until barely tender-crisp to bite (2 to 3 minutes). Immerse in cold water; when cold, drain well. In a large bowl, combine broccoli, mushrooms, onions, and celery.
3. Stir together sugar and vinegar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in paprika, celery seeds, and oil. Pour over vegetable mixture; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
4. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
