Salad Base

Pickled Onions

Dressing (optional)

Method

Prepare Pickled Onions

1

Make the Pickling Solution

In a small saucepan, combine the apple cider vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat until the sugar and salt dissolve completely.

2

Pickle the Onions

Slice the red onion thinly and place it in a glass jar. Pour the pickling solution over the onions, ensuring they are fully submerged. Let them sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to a week.

Prepare the Salad

3

Wash the Greens

Thoroughly rinse the farmer's greens under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Shake off excess water and roughly chop them into bite-sized pieces.

4

Prepare the Carrots

Peel the carrots and slice them thinly into rounds or julienne them for a different texture.

5

Chop the Tomato

Remove the stem from the tomato, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.

6

Combine Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped greens, sliced carrots, and chopped tomato.

Assemble the Salad

7

Add Pickled Onions

After the pickled onions are ready, drain them from the pickling solution and add them to the salad mixture.

8

Dress the Salad (optional)

If using, drizzle olive oil and lemon juice over the salad. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss everything together gently to combine.

9

Serve

Transfer the salad to a serving bowl or individual plates and enjoy fresh!
