Honey-Ginger Vinaigrette & Mixed Greens Salad


    Honey-Ginger Vinaigrette & Mixed Greens Salad
    Mixed Greens Salad with
    Radish & Cucumber
    Salad Components 
    Mixed Spring Salad Mix 
    Cucumber Shreds 
    Radish Carrot-sticks and Rounds 
    Sliced Green Onion and Scallions 
    Chopped Cilantro  
    Sriracha-Ginger Vinaigrette 
    2 tbls Dijon Mustard 
    2 tbls Rice Wine Vinegar 
    2 tbls Honey 
    1.5 tbls Sriracha Chili Sauce 
    1.5 tbls Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
    2 tsp Ground Coriander 
    2 tsp Freshly Micrograted Ginger 
    1 tsp Fresh Course-Ground Black Pepper 
    1/2 tsp Kosher Salt 
    PREPARATION : I used a handheld mandoline blade to cut the cucumber, but did the radish rounds and sticks, and green onion slices with a knife by hand. I tend to layer my salads in a serving bowl and allow it to mix during serving. Next time I'll shoot some board shots so you can see my layout before assembly. This time I just assembled in the same bowl that I mixed the dressing in. I put the dressing (enough for two days worth of salads) into a glass jar after prep for easy pouring. Always dress your salads on your plate for the freshest possible salad.
