Harvest Celebration Salad

This humble salad does a lot more than celebrating the end of summer products that fill the farmer’s markets or local gardens – it fills the mouth with an explosion of different flavors.

There’s a bit of grilled and smoky notes from the sweet corn, crispy and slightly sweet notes from the massaged cabbage, bursts of cumin from the roasted seeds, tanginess from the mildly pickled vegetables, and a bit of heat from the chili – just enough to tickle the throat. This is precisely the kind of salad that delivers massive flavor by getting the most out of each

This humble salad does a lot more than celebrating the end of summer products that fill the farmer’s markets or local gardens – it fills the mouth with an explosion of different flavors.

There’s a bit of grilled and smoky notes from the sweet corn, crispy and slightly sweet notes from the massaged cabbage, bursts of cumin from the roasted seeds, tanginess from the mildly pickled vegetables, and a bit of heat from the chili – just enough to tickle the throat. This is precisely the kind of salad that delivers massive flavor by getting the most out of each ingredient.

I like to serve this salad as a main course, accompanied by a few pieces of crispy bread and a nice glass of white wine.

Difficulty: simple
