As a woman who made her name in the food world with a famously delicious coffee crunch cake, a fresh salad recipe like this one was the last thing we expected from confectioner extraordinaire, Valerie Gordon. Then again, when you're working with toffee and chocolate all day, you likely learn how to make a mean green salad like this one pretty quickly, just to counter all that sugar!
If you've ever wondered what to do with those perfect little leaves of Little Gem lettuce this time of year, this is the recipe for you. This quick chop of spring produce, a few impossibly fresh herbs and a creme fraiche dressing have us hooked...
Think of this as a salad recipe that celebrates the freshness of a new season. As our days get longer with bright sunshine, we are treated to the blush and green harvest of the warmer seasons. Here, crunchy little gems and bitter radicchio are paired with the first asparagus of the year, along with handfuls of herbs, avocado and pink radishes.
