Best Spring Radish Salad With Egg And Garden Cress Recipes

SPRING RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• For the dressing: In a small pot, bring the grapefruit juice to a simmer over medium-low heat. Reduce the juice to 1/4 cup. Set aside to cool.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the reduced grapefruit juice, vinegar, mustard, honey and soy sauce and season with salt and pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil and whisk until emulsified.
• For the salad: Combine the radishes with the watercress and fennel in a medium bowl and toss with a small amount of the dressing. Arrange the avocado, grapefruit and orange on a platter, drizzle with the dressing and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle on the serrano, then top with the dressed radish mixture and serve.

HERBED SPRING SALAD WITH EGG AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Put shallots in a small bowl. Add mustard, vinegar, 3 tablespoons lemon juice and the garlic. Stir together, and add a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the walnut oil. Set aside for a few minutes, then taste and adjust lemon juice and salt.
• Wash and dry the salad greens. Tear large leaves into smaller pieces, if desired. Wrap in a clean towel and refrigerate if not serving immediately.
• Just before serving salad, put beet wedges in the bottom of a wide salad bowl. Add the radish, turnip and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Add dill, tarragon and half of the vinaigrette. Toss gently to coat.
• Add the salad greens and combine to distribute sliced vegetables evenly. Cut eggs in halves or quarters, and arrange over salad. Scatter walnuts over the top. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette.

EGG & PARSLEY SALAD WITH WATERCRESS DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and boil the eggs for 9 mins, then drain, cool, peel and halve. Whizz the watercress and oil together with a pinch of salt and set aside. Mix the chilli flakes with some flaky salt and set aside. Everything can be prepared the day before and chilled, though there's no need to chill the salt.
• Take everything to the picnic in separate containers, then when you get there, scatter the eggs with the parsley and shallots, drizzle everything with the watercress oil and season with the chilli salt.

GARDEN EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Put the eggs in a saucepan with enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, cover, and remove from the heat. Set aside for 12 minutes. Drain the eggs and roll them between your palm and the counter to crack the shell, then peel under cool running water.
• Dice the eggs. Combine the eggs with mayonnaise, mustard and season with the salt and pepper. Stir in the scallions, celery, and radish.
• Divide the egg salad among the lettuce leaves, top with the sprouts and roll up. Serve 2 rolls per serving.
