RADISH AND HERB SALAD WITH MEYER LEMON DRESSING



Radish and Herb Salad with Meyer Lemon Dressing image

Thinly slicing radishes, celery and fennel, preferably on a mandoline, makes for a salad as ethereally light as the usual baby lettuce, but with a more interesting mix of colors and textures. If you can find watermelon radishes, use them here - they turn a good-looking mix into something truly stunning, with a piquant bite. If you can't find Meyer lemons, substitute regular lemon juice spiked with a touch of orange or tangerine to compensate for the missing sweetness.
