Ingredients for the Spring Salad
-
Black radish or daikon — 1 piece (you can use leftovers from last harvest).
-
Green apple — 1 piece (adds a pleasant tartness and balances the flavor).
-
Carrot — 1 small.
-
A handful of pumpkin seeds — a source of protein and zinc.
“Energy” Dressing instead of Mayonnaise:
-
3 tablespoons of unrefined sunflower oil (with a pronounced seed aroma);
-
1 teaspoon of honey;
-
1 teaspoon of grainy mustard;
-
A few drops of apple cider vinegar.
Step-by-Step Preparation
The vegetables should be grated into long thin strips using a Korean carrot grater. It is recommended to sprinkle the radish with salt beforehand and let it sit for 2 minutes to reduce bitterness. After that, drain the excess liquid. Combine the radish, apple, and carrot in a deep bowl, drizzle with the fresh dressing, and generously sprinkle with pumpkin seeds.
Why is it delicious? The sharpness of the radish is softened by the honey, while the apple adds the freshness we eagerly await in spring.
