'In the Kitchen' Vibrant Farm Blog Series: Chicory Salad
Chicory Salad
This is our favorite salad to make quickly for our farmer lunch. Colorful and bright, this salad packs a punch in flavor and appearance. The vinegar and mustard compliment the bitter greens, and the kohlrabi and fennel add a wonderful texture. Start with whisking the vinaigrette in the bottom of the salad bowl and then build the salad on top of it.
