Celery Curls & Watermelon Radish with Green Umami Caesar

Ingredients

Serves 2:

1 pouch Salad for President Umami Caesar Dressing Mix

¼ cup mayonnaise

Juice of ½ lemon

¼ cup water

1 tablespoon basil leaves

1 tablespoon roughly chopped green onion tops

1 large celery stalk

1 small watermelon radish, thinly sliced

1 head Little Gem lettuce or baby romaine, leaves separated, washed, and dried

Flaky sea salt

1 tablespoon crushed crispy chickpea snacks

Instructions

Combine the Salad for President Umami Caesar Dressing Mix, mayonnaise, lemon juice, water, basil, and green onion tops in a blender. Blend until smooth and bright green. Set aside.

Fill a salad spinner with ice water. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the celery into long ribbons and add them to the ice bath along with the sliced radish. Let stand until the celery curls, about 10 minutes. Drain and spin dry.

Arrange the lettuce on a serving platter and scatter the celery ribbons and radishes over the top. Season lightly with flaky sea salt, drizzle with the dressing, and finish with the crushed crispy chickpea snacks.
