Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 cups Mizuna greens
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 2 Shallots
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Rinse and thoroughly dry the mizuna greens. Place them in a large salad bowl and set aside.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Peel and finely dice the shallots.
In a small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the minced garlic and diced shallots to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 2-3 minutes, or until softened and fragrant but not browned.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional minute, stirring continuously, until the ingredients are well combined and the dressing is warmed through.
Remove the skillet from the heat. Season the dressing with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
Pour the hot garlic and shallot dressing over the mizuna greens. Toss gently to coat the greens evenly with the dressing.
Serve the salad immediately as a side dish or a light appetizer. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of additional red pepper flakes for extra heat.
