Mâche and Mint Salad with Buttermilk Ponzu Dressing

It’s already starting to heat up here in Southern California. When it gets super hot, my appetite kind of crashes along with it. I just want to drink cold water and eat salads. Which I guess is … good?

Anything super green and fresh is always appealing, like this mâche salad, with fresh mint, cold edamame, microgreens and paper-thin watermelon radishes with some sesame seeds thrown in for crunch. I love adding in this buttermilk-ponzu dressing, which adds a little fat and brightness, and is easy to whip up in minutes. There are all kinds of ponzu sauces available, but I love using a super-citrusy variety here, which works well with the richness of the “buttermilk” (vegan sour cream+coconut vinegar+a touch of unsweetened soymilk) and crispness of the greens.
