This
is a salad that I actually have been meaning to share with you for a
long time! Thanks to my dear friend, who gave me these beautiful
Japanese Koransha ceramic dishes last year, which gave me the idea to
use them and write this recipe. It's one of my favourites and is
something I make very often during the summertime. It's basically
inspired by the traditional Japanese sunomono, which is often made
with cucumbers or cucumber and wakame in vinegar and soy sauce. You
can find it in most Japanese restaurants. It's actually quite easy to
make at home, and it's the perfect appetizer or accompaniment for any
Asian food. In this recipe, I added some radishes and fava beans,
which contain a good amount of protein, vitamins, minerals, and
anti-oxidants to make this traditional dish even more nutritious. The
dressing is slightly tangy and sweet, and with the different textures
of the vegetables, everything just ties together nicely!
