Herby Cabbage Salad Recipes

HERBY SALAD WITH BURRATA

Steps:

• For the basil vinaigrette: Add the olive oil, lemon juice, basil and shallot to the carafe of a blender. Blend until the shallot is broken down and the ingredients are thoroughly combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Blend once more to combine the seasonings. Transfer to a serving vessel alongside the salad.
• For the salad: Add the arugula to a large serving platter. Sprinkle with the chives, mint and parsley. Then sprinkle with the lemon zest and peas. Distribute the burrata evenly on top. Sprinkle with the flaky salt and serve with the basil vinaigrette on the side.

HERBY SNAP PEA AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once the water is boiling, add the snap peas and cook until the snap peas are bright green but still tender-crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the snap peas to a bowl of ice water. Set aside.
• 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.

HERBY POTATO SALAD WITH WARM BACON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with 2 inches water. Generously season the water with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes.
• While the potatoes cook, place the bacon in a cold skillet and turn to medium-low heat. Add the olive oil and thyme to the pan. Saute the bacon and thyme until just starting to crisp, about 7 minutes; we want to render the bacon slowly. Once the bacon has rendered some of its fat, add the onions to the bacon and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the vinegar, butter and mustard.
• Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and add immediately to the pan with the sauteed bacon. Stir to coat, adjusting the seasoning, if necessary. Add the remaining fresh herbs, toss and serve.
• This salad can be served warm or at room temperature.
• Cook's Note: Adding the potatoes while they are still warm will help them to soak up the flavors of the vinaigrette.
