Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the spring mix salad greens under cold water and dry them with a salad spinner or by gently patting them with a clean kitchen towel.

  2. 2

    Slice the Cucumber

    Peel the cucumber if desired, then slice it into thin rounds. Set aside.

    Chop the Tomato

    Core the tomato and chop it into bite-sized pieces. Set aside with the cucumber.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Burdock Root

    Wash the burdock root thoroughly and peel it with a vegetable peeler. Cut it into thin matchstick pieces or julienne it for texture.

  5. 5

    Combine the Salad Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the washed spring mix, sliced cucumber, chopped tomato, and prepared burdock root. Toss gently to mix.

  6. 6

    Add Furikake

    Sprinkle the furikake over the salad and toss gently to ensure it's evenly distributed.

  7. 7

    Serve with Dressing

    Serve the salad immediately with your favorite ginger dressing, drizzling it over the top just before serving.
