Source of Recipe

Beano(R) Bulletin


List of Ingredients

4 c Low-sodium chicken broth
10 oz Pkg frozen lima beans (with trace of salt)
10 oz Pkg frozen no-salt-added chopped broccoli
1 c Sliced carrots
1/2 c Chopped onions
2 tb Light soy sauce
1 t Bottled minced garlic
1 t Grated ginger root
2 ts Sesame seeds, toasted
2 ts Dry sherry (optional)



Recipe

In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil over high heat. Add lima beans, broccoli, carrots, onions, soy sauce, garlic and ginger root. Return to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until beans are just tender. Stir in sesame seeds and, if desired, sherry.

Cook's Tip: You can keep any unused ginger root fresh for several months. Just submerge it in a jar of dry sherry. Cover the jar tightly and store it in the refrigerator. Or wrap the ginger root in plastic wrap and store it in the freezer.
