Great Summer Salad Recipe: A cold salad with raspberries and cherry tomatoes by Chef Schulz

Chef’s Note: I enjoy making, and eating salads, especially when they are quick and easy to prepare. This Raspberry and Cherry Tomato salad is one of my all-time favourites. With summer here, I want something that is easy and tasty with a kick to it as I lounge on the deck or wherever I may find myself on a hot summer evening….Enjoy!

Ingredients:

• Colourful and firm cherry tomatoes (slice about 20 cherry tomatoes in a half)

• Two blood oranges (peel, cut into thin slices)

• 2 radishes (thinly sliced) 

• Two hand fulls of raspberries (if you like raspberries use the whole container)

• Belgium endives (break off about 6 to 10 leaves)

• Vinaigrette

Directions/Ingredients for making your Vinaigrette:

• Take 2 tablespoons of rice wine

• Take 2 tablespoons of honey

• Take 2 tablespoons of virgin Italian Olive Oil

• Take 1 tablespoon of minced chilli

• Take 3 tablespoons of warm water

• Take One cup of fish sauce

• Take half a teaspoon of sugar

• Season with kosher salt and grounded pepper (to your liking).

Mix all the ingredients of the salad in a bowl, mix the vinaigrette ingredients (stir with a spoon or whisk them together. Once all ingredients are mixed, drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad ingredients and enjoy this simple explosion of the fruits and vegetables.
