Salad Ingredients
- Fresh garden lettuce, roughly chopped
- Radishes, sliced
- Spring onions, sliced
- Hard-boiled eggs, diced
Dressing Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup vinegar
- 1 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Vegetables: Wash the fresh garden vegetables thoroughly. Roughly chop the lettuce, and slice the radishes and spring onions to your preferred thickness to maintain a variety of textures in the salad.
- Cook the Eggs: Hard-boil the eggs using an egg cooker or stovetop method. Once cooked, immediately transfer them to ice water to cool, then peel off the shells and dice the eggs into small blocks.
- Assemble the Salad: Place the chopped lettuce, sliced radishes, spring onions, and diced hard-boiled eggs into a large serving bowl and gently toss to mix all ingredients evenly.
- Make the Dressing: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the cream, sugar, vinegar, and salt until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened. Transfer the dressing into a jar or condiment container to keep it fresh until serving.
- Serve: Drizzle the sweet cream dressing over the salad just before serving, toss lightly to coat everything evenly, and enjoy this refreshing garden salad.
Notes
- The salad can be customized by adding other fresh vegetables like cucumber or cherry tomatoes.
- For a tangier dressing, consider adjusting the vinegar quantity to taste.
- Make sure to chill the dressing before serving for best flavor.
- This salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
