Ingredients:
For the vinaigrette:
1/8 cup organic lemon juice
2 cups organic olive oil
2 teaspoons Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon white pepper, ground finely
For the herb salad:
Herbs (approximately 1/4 cup total per salad):
Italian parsley
Basil, leaves torn
Chive, snipped to 3/4" long
Chervil
Cilantro
Dill
Tarragon
Salad burnet
Lemon balm
Organic edible flowers such as pansies, borage, chive blossoms, nasturtiums, calendulas, etc.
2-3 butter lettuce leaves for each salad for a base
Directions:
Make sure all of your herbs and flowers are organically grown. Pick and clean the herbs - you want the leaves to be whole (except for large basil leaves, they can be torn in half) - and pick the petals off of the flowers. Dress the herbs and butter lettuce lightly with the simple lemon vinaigrette from above. Place the butter lettuce on a plate so that it forms a cup. Fill the lettuce cup with the herbs and sprinkle with flower petals and server.
Notes:
The amounts in most stores' herb packages are about the right portion size for 4-6 salads.
