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 |

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. |
