Ingredientes
- Cucumber and Radish Salad
- 1 cucumber, peeled and seeded, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch of summer radishes, thinly sliced (I use a mandoline. You can chop some of the leaves in too)
- 1 small stick of celery with leaves, thinly sliced and the leaves roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion, small diced
- 1 Tbsp fresh chopped tarragon
- (for the vinaigrette)
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
- 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 clove of roasted garlic (I always roast extra garlic and let it soak in olive oil. Use for a few days)
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp salt
- fresh cracked black pepper to taste
