FRISÉE SALAD WITH MARINATED TOMATOES + LADY PEA RELISH

Pickled field peas are a great relish to serve alongside roast pork, but they also make a great dip for corn chips. In the middle of winter, you can pretend it’s summer by serving a scoop of this pickle in a lettuce cup as a salad. A perfect hostess gift for New Year’s, or a special treat to serve for good luck.

  • 1/4 cup Baby Arugula

  • 1/4 cup Baby Kale

  • 2 cup White Vinegar

  • 2 cup Red Wine Vinegar

  • 1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar

  • 1oz Honey

  • 3/4 cup Raw Cane Sugar

  • 1 cup Olive Oil

METHOD

In a medium bowl, mix white vinegar, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, honey, sugar, shallots, garlic, herbs, salt, & pepper.


Marinate the tomato slices in the vinegar marinade overnight.
