Spring Garden Salad with Orange Herb Dressing, Homemade Croutons and 6-minute Eggs.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We arrived in a beautiful farm and Horticultural Education Center about 20 km outside of Bilbao, Spain in the Basque Region.  Lush hills of farmlands and forest, this area is beautiful. Known for fresh local ingredients the Basque know how to enjoy food.  We were unaware that it was a holiday and therefore no stores were open \u2013 we had a half loaf of bread and a jar of peanut butter and ready for dinner.  No worries the produce on the farm was gorgeous and plenty!  The chickens had eggs for us, there were herbs of plenty and fresh citrus \u2013 here is what I made for a perfect spring dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orange Herb Dressing<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juice of one orange \u2013 throw in some of the sections too<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bc cup good olive oil (check the date! Olive oil spoils)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sea salt to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 cup or more chopped herbs \u2013 I had parsley, dill, mint, chives, fennel and lemon balm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chop herbs, add all ingredients and mix \u2013 adjust to taste with any of the ingredients.  If you desire more of a punch in your dressing feel free to add lemon or a light vinegar \u2013 sherry, apple or white wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Garden Salad<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fresh spring greens<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spring onions<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rocket (arugula works)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cabbage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edible flowers \u2013 I had chive blossoms and broccoli flowers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t have a garden, the next best thing is a local farmer\u2019s market, use what is fresh and what looks good to you. These ingredients will change with the seasons. Wash and tear greens, finely slice onions and cabbage.  A note on edible flowers \u2013 they can be delicious, a bit spicy and add a beautiful touch to your plate.  Talk with your local farmers or send me any of your questions.  If you have a garden, taste the flowers your plants make on their way to seed \u2013 it\u2019s a great way to mix up your plate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Housemade Croutons<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bread \u2013 any that you have will work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Olive oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salt<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like to tear the bread into bite size pieces, you can cut it if you like.  I toss the pieces with a generous serving of olive oil and salt to taste.  You can toast them in a pan, bake them in an oven on 350 until crisp \u2013 or my favorite \u2013 toss them on the BBQ!  If you BBQ them make sure they are large enough pieces to not fall through the grates.  BBQ on medium turning continually until they are toasty on the outside and a lovely chewy on the inside!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 Minute Eggs<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bring enough water to cover your eggs to boil, carefully lower eggs in using a spoon so you don\u2019t drop the eggs and crack the shell.  Boil for 6 minutes. Remove the eggs and submerge into an ice bath (bowl of ice water). Peel when cool enough to handle the eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toss the salad ingredients with dressing in a serving bowl, top with edible flowers, eggs and croutons.  Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
