Broccoli Raab with Spicy Almond-Miso Dressing

1 lb broccoli raab, ends trimmed
3 Tbs almond butter
1 Tbs rice vinegar
2 Tbs sweet white miso
1 tsp chile-garlic sauce

1) Bring 2 inches of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Add broccoli raab, cover pan, and cook 4 minutes. Turn with tongs and cook 4 minutes more, or until bright green and tender. Drain, then cool.
2) Whisk together almond butter, 2 Tbs water, vinegar, miso and chile-garlic sauce in a small bowl. Pour dressing over broccoli raab and toss to distribute evenly.

Review: Every time I make a "dressing" with miso or almond butter, the directions always say "pour" it on. However, mine is NEVER pourable. I had a double whammy tonight, since it had both miso and almond butter. So, I clumped it on and consciously scooped a bit of dressing with every forkful of broccoli raab. It worked for me. The dressing was unbelievably delicious, just on it's own. It was savory, with just a hint of sweetness and spicy heat. This, combined with the sharp bitterness of the broccoli raab was just heavenly.
