Chef Notes:
- Toasting the Nuts: Think of your almonds or sesame seeds as sunbathers. Give them a light toasting before adding them to your salad. This will make them show off their rich, nutty flavor and give an extra 'crunch' performance. Just remember, they like a dry pan over medium heat and need a little stir to avoid getting sunburned!
- Chilling Before Serving: Once you've assembled your salad team, they need some chill time, literally. Send them to the refrigerator spa for at least 30 minutes before serving. This cool-down session lets the flavors mingle and the ingredients refresh themselves, resulting in a dish that's as invigorating as a splash in the pool on a hot day.
- Use Fresh Vegetables: Freshness is the secret sauce of any salad. Ensure your lettuce is as crisp as a fresh dollar bill, your carrots as firm as a bodybuilder, and your cilantro as vibrant as a salsa dancer. Fresh vegetables don't just taste better - they add a crunch that's as satisfying as stepping on a crunchy autumn leaf!
