THE GREENEST GREEN SALAD
The cookbook author Jessica Battilana's advice to home cooks is simple: "If you're going to spend your energy somewhere, spend it somewhere that matters." Put her philosophy into practice and make this simple, satisfying salad. All the ingredients can be easily found at any grocery store, and the salad will come together quickly in the kitchen, though it looks and tastes like it requires much more effort and time to prepare. Perhaps most happily, even the most discerning critics - the 4-and-under crowd - will delight in its flavor and crunch and politely ask for seconds.

Steps:
- Line a large plate with paper towels. Set aside. Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the snap peas, and cook until just tender, about 90 seconds. Use a strainer to remove the peas onto the prepared plate, and spread out in a single layer. Allow to cool and dry completely (the dressing won't stick to a wet snap pea). Cut each pea in half crosswise on the bias.
- In a large bowl, combine the snap peas, romaine, cucumbers and green onions. Mix well to combine. Add the avocado and about half the dressing. Mix gently with your hands until the salad is well coated with dressing, adding more if necessary. Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve cold, immediately. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 1 week.

Steps:
- The lettuce may be Bibb or Boston, romaine or leaf; the greens may be a few leaves of any or all of those listed above, or you may select others of your choosing. The prime requisite is that they be fresh and crisp, well washed and thoroughly dried. No drop of water should be allowed to lurk in the fold of a leaf, or the salad will be watery and quick to wilt.
- Rub an outsize salad bowl with the garlic, peeled and halved, until there is a good coating well up on all sides. Break the lettuce and greens into the bowl. Snip the herbs small and crush them lightly as you add them to the greens. Measure the oil into a big spoon and sprinkle it over the salad. Dissolve the salt and pepper in the vinegar in the same spoon, and sprinkle this on the salad. Then begin a light and rhythmic tossing, which is more a gentle turning of the greens over and over until every leaf is coated and the seasonings well distributed. Add the chives, taste to see if more salt is needed, then serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp greens. This will ensure that your salad is flavorful and refreshing.
- Wash your greens thoroughly. This will remove any dirt or bacteria that may be present.
- Dry your greens thoroughly. This will help to prevent your salad from becoming watery.
- Choose a variety of greens. This will add flavor and texture to your salad.
- Add other vegetables and fruits. This will make your salad more nutritious and flavorful.
- Use a light dressing. This will help to keep your salad healthy and refreshing.
- Serve your salad immediately. This will ensure that it is at its best.
Conclusion:
A no-salt green salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite greens. By following these tips, you can make a salad that is both flavorful and nutritious. So next time you're looking for a healthy and refreshing meal, give a no-salt green salad a try.
