Our Winter Salad


Last winter Ken read that spinach loses most of its nutrition eight days after harvest. So we are working on what we can eat we could grow. In winter we grow sprouts.




Then I grate root vegetables - celery root, carrots, daikon or black radish.




















Then I make a dressing.








My dressings vary from day to day. I combine a sour like vinegar or lemon juice, a sweet like honey, some oil or dairy like yogurt, sour cream, cheese, or mayonnaise, herbs or pesto and or garlic or onion, and salt, and pepper.














This one is lemon juice, olive oil, herbs, basil pesto, honey, feta cheese, salt, pepper. Sometimes I make a typical cole slaw dressing.
