Radicchio and dandelion greens are a few of my favorite greens and these chicories have been coming out of the garden the past few weeks. Red and white-streaked radicchio and the dark green and red of dandelion greens are beautiful in a salad… they are also super-good for you!
Chiffonade your greens (slice into thin ribbons). Mix lime juice, sesame oil, and tamari (or use salt) with chopped cilantro. You could also add a bit of honey if you want a sweeter dressing to pair with these bitter greens. Toss everything together with cooked soba noodles.
Top with jalapeno slices for a little heat. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds if you like.
Yum.
You could substitute Napa cabbage, escarole, or endive for the greens.
