Sweet Pea Shoot Salad
Sweet Pea Shoot Salad
1 tsp. sherry vinegar
1/4 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 pinch sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 T. extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound sweet pea tendrils, washed and dried, thick stems discarded
2 carrots, peeled and shaved into thin ribbons with a mandoline or horizontal vegetable peeler
6 radishes (such as French breakfast or icicle), thinly sliced
1/2 Vidalia or other sweet onion, thinly sliced
In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper to taste. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until a light emulsion has formed. In a large serving bowl, combine the tendrils, carrots, radishes, and onion. Drizzle in just enough of the vinaigrette to lightly coat the vegetables and tendrils and serve.
