Lately I’ve been eating lots of salads like this one, which I’ve been able to source almost entirely from my own garden.

I grow radishes because it’s so easy to do so, but to be very honest, I’m not so crazy about the way they taste…they’re so “peppery.” So I like to combine them with ingredients that are sweet- here that would be the Sungold tomatoes, strawberries, and the maple yogurt dressing.

In this radish salad, I treated the herbs like salad greens. I think any herbs whose flavor you love would work; I used equal parts of basil, mint, and lemon balm, plus some borage leaves and flowers and a handful of anise hyssop flowers (all from my garden).

I also added some dill (from a local farm). You can feel free to use actual greens (like baby arugula or spinach) for all or part of the herbs, but if you do, I would still garnish the salad with some minced dill…I love its characteristic flavor in this context.

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
