Persimmon, radish, and watercress salad
Delight your taste buds with a refreshing persimmon, radish, and watercress salad bursting with vibrant flavors and a crunch in every bite. Perfect for a light and flavorful meal.
Ingredients:
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 medium red onion
- 5 or 6 radishes
- 1 small head butter lettuce, leaves torn into bite-sized pieces
- 1 bunch watercress, stems trimmed
- 2 ripe persimmons, sliced into half moons
- 1 pinch sea salt, to taste
- 1 pinch ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Mix together the lemon peel, juice, and sea salt in a small bowl. Gradually stir in the olive oil until the mixture becomes a smooth blend.
- Prepare the red onion by removing the outer layer and cutting the ends off the radishes. Utilize the mandoline slicer on the thinnest setting to thinly slice the onion (halve it first, then slice each half separately) and the radishes. Season with a small amount of sea salt, and 2 tablespoons of the previously made vinaigrette.
- In a big bowl, combine the greens with a sprinkle of sea salt and an additional tablespoon of vinaigrette. Intersperse persimmon slices, as well as the sliced radishes and red onion. Adjust the seasoning with sea salt. Drizzle more vinaigrette on top and garnish with a few turns of black pepper.
