Ingredients

Fresh Herb Dressing

1 cup (30 g) mixed tender herbs (such as parsley, cilantro, tarragon, lemon balm, chives, chervil), leaves coarsely chopped
¼ cup (60 ml) olive oil
4 tsp (20 ml) white balsamic vinegar
2 tsp (10 ml) honey

Salad

1 watermelon radish, about 8 oz (225 g), peeled, halved and thinly sliced on a mandoline
4 radishes, thinly sliced on a mandoline
5 red pearl onions, thinly sliced on a mandoline (see note)
¾ lb (340 g) sugar snap peas, trimmed
1 ½ cups (225 g) watermelon, cut into large dice
Red radish microgreens (optional)

Preparation

Fresh Herb Dressing

On a work surface, finely chop ½ cup (15 g) of the herbs. Place in a bowl. Add the oil, vinegar and honey. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Salad

Plunge the radish and onion slices in a bowl of ice water. Let soak for 10 minutes or until the vegetables are very crisp. Drain and pat dry with a clean dishcloth. Place in a large bowl. Set aside.
In a pot of salted boiling water, cook the sugar snap peas for 1 minute. Drain and plunge into the bowl of ice water, adding more ice cubes as needed. Drain and pat dry with a clean dishcloth. On a work surface, pull the snap peas apart lengthwise. Place in the bowl with the radishes and onions.
Add the watermelon radish and dressing to the bowl of vegetables. Season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Serve the salad on plates. Garnish with the remaining herbs and the microgreens, if desired.
