Bulgur Salad With Lemon Radishes And Snap Peas Recipes

BULGUR SALAD WITH CUCUMBERS, RED PEPPERS, CHICK PEAS, LEMON & DILL

Steps:

• Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Place the bulgur in a large bowl with ½ teaspoon salt and 1¼ cups boiling water. Cover the bowl tightly with saran wrap and let sit for 15-30 minutes, or until all of the water is absorbed. Let cool, then fluff with a fork.
• Meanwhile, to soften the bite of the raw onions, place them in a small bowl and cover with cold water. Let sit for ten minutes, and then drain. (Feel free to skip this step if you don't mind the strong taste of raw onions.)
• In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, sugar, pepper, and remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Add the cooled bulgur, onion, bell pepper, cucumber, dill, parsley, and chick peas. Toss well, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Chill until ready to serve or up to two days. Serve cold or room temperature.

SUGAR SNAP PEA AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• For the salad: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Using a paring knife, trim the ends of the snap peas. Blanch the peas in the boiling water just until tender-crisp and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peas from the pot and cool completely in ice water, about 1 minute. Drain the peas on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
• Using a chef's knife, trim the roots and stems off the radishes. Quarter about half and thinly slice the rest to create texture in the salad. Mince the chives.
• In a large salad bowl, combine the peas, radishes, and minced chives.
• For the vinaigrette: In a small glass jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Shake to combine.
• Toss the vinaigrette with the salad and serve.

• Add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, chives, mint, oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Drain the snap peas and add them to the bowl with the dressing. Add the radishes to the bowl and toss well to thoroughly coat the vegetables in the dressing.
• Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
