Tips & Tricks (5)
- Dry Your Greens Thoroughly 💧Wash and completely dry your spring mix with a salad spinner or paper towels—excess moisture dilutes the dressing and makes the salad wilt quickly.
- Emulsify Your Dressing Properly 🥄Whisk the mustard and honey together first, then slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking to create a stable, creamy emulsion that coats every leaf.
- Add Avocado at the Last Moment 🥑Slice or cube your avocado just before serving and gently fold it in at the end to prevent browning and maintain its creamy texture.
- Toast Your Sunflower Seeds for Depth 🌻Lightly toast raw sunflower seeds in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes to enhance their nutty flavor and create better textural contrast in the salad.
- Balance Acidity with Lemon and Vinegar 🍋Use fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar in a 2:1 ratio to build complexity—the lemon brightens while the vinegar adds subtle depth without overpowering.
