Method

Step by step

  1. Cut everything to a size you can catch on one fork and keep it cold.
  2. Make the dressing first so the flavors have a minute to come together.
  3. Dress the sturdy items early and the delicate leaves at the very last moment.
  4. Finish with crunch, a little salt, and a bright squeeze of citrus.
