SUMMER FLOWER SALAD



Summer Flower Salad image

Nasturtiums add a peppery taste to a green or mixed salad and a flash of contrasting color. This is an attractive summer salad, rich in vitamin C, and can be eaten as a first course or on its own. I use other summer flowers in bloom too(red clover, cosmos,marigolds,pinks,roses, etc.). In the ingredients, it says nasturtium petals, but I actually use whole flowers along with petals.

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 cups mixed lettuce leaves
35 fresh edible nasturtium petals
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon walnut oil
1 teaspoon prepared French mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • The nasturtium flowers should be fresh, unblemished and unsprayed. Do not wash them if possible, as the petals bruise easily. Check in the long horn at the back for insects and pick off the stem.
  • Mix the flowers with the lettuce leaves.
  • Shake the dressing ingredients together and mix with the salad just before serving. Serves 6.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
olive oil
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
6 slices bacon, cooked
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish

Tips:

  • Use seasonal flowers. This will ensure that your salad is made with the freshest and most flavorful flowers possible.
  • Choose edible flowers. Not all flowers are edible, so be sure to do your research before adding any flowers to your salad.
  • Wash the flowers thoroughly. This will remove any dirt or debris from the flowers.
  • Be careful not to overdress the salad. A light vinaigrette or dressing is all that is needed to enhance the flavor of the flowers.
  • Serve the salad immediately. This will prevent the flowers from wilting.

Conclusion:

Summer flower salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up any extra flowers that you may have in your garden. With a little creativity, you can create a summer flower salad that is both beautiful and delicious.
