Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicory

    Wash the chicory leaves thoroughly under cold water. Tear them into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Slice the Radish

    Thinly slice the radish and add it to the bowl with the chicory.

  3. 3

    Add Fresh Herbs

    Chop the fresh herbs finely and sprinkle them over the chicory and radish in the salad bowl.

  4. 4

    Make Lemon Cream Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of lemon juice, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad.

  5. 5

    Add Furikake

    Sprinkle furikake over the salad for added flavor and texture.

  6. 6

    Serve with Focaccia

    Toast the focaccia slices lightly and serve them on the side or cut them into crouton-sized pieces and toss them in the salad.
