CLASSIC VIETNAMESE BANANA FLOWER SALAD
This salad is highlighted by the hot-tart play of chili and lime off the crisp rings of the banana flower, it is a refreshing dish that is perfect for a hot summer day. If banana flowers are unavailable, a good substitute is peeled and shredded green papaya.

Steps:
- Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet. Sauté the shallots until golden brown. Leave them in the oil, and set aside to cool.
- Squeeze fresh lime juice into the bowl of water. This will be used to prevent the banana flower slices from turning brown.
- Peel back the dark purple layers of the banana flower until you reach layers with just a hint of purple. Using a mandoline, slice the banana flower into thin rings, beginning at the point and slicing about three-quarters of the way down. The rings will look similar to onion rings. Immediately soak the rings in the lime water until ready to use. Set aside.
- Once the oil is cool, mix in half of the mint leaves and half of the Thai basil with the sautéed shallots.
- Mix the dressing ingredients in a separate bowl. Heat lovers will want to add more chili.
- When you slice the banana flower, you will end up with small bits from the center of the flower. Strain these out using a spoon. Don't worry if you don't get all of them. Remove the banana flower from the water, and combine with the shallot/mint/basil mixture, chopped peanuts, and remainder of the fresh mint and basil.
- Toss in the dressing, and serve.
BANANA BLOSSOM SALAD
Unlike the purple bulb banana blossom from Hawaii, Mexico and South America that is available and used in the USA, Chef Khai remembers the lovely white, tender banana blossoms he enjoyed in Vietnam. To julienne the banana blossoms, Chef Khai uses the thinnest setting on a Japanese mandolin. It is important to soak the strips in a large bowl of cold water with white vinegar to prevent discoloration.

Steps:
- Peel off and discard the tough, old outer layers (called bracts) of the banana blossom. Use a Japanese mandolin with the thinnest setting and cut into fine julienne strips; immediately plunge into large bowl of cold water and the white vinegar. When ready to prepare the salad, remove the julienne strips and shake off the tiny white buds (chopped up baby buds). Rinse and drain. Squeeze dry of the excess water. Place 4 cups well-packed strips into a bowl. Add the White Vinaigrette and toss for a few seconds. Pour off the excess liquid.
- In a separate bowl, toss the shredded chicken with salt, pepper, and lime juice. Add the grapefruit, rau rum, and chili fish sauce and mix together thoroughly.
- To serve, mound the salad equally onto 4 separate plates. Top each salad with 1 tablespoon crispy shallot flakes and 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts. Serve immediately.
- Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Set aside.

Steps:
- Place all salad dressing ingredients into a blender and mix until sugar is dissolved; set aside.
- Remove the 4 outer leaves of the banana blossom to use as a garnish; cut off the bottom core and the tip.
- Using a sharp knife, start at the top of the blossom and slice crosswise into the thinnest possible strips.
- As you move down, you will eventually encounter what looks like tiny bananas; remove all the leaves and discard the baby banana pieces.
- Stack the leaves, roll them into a cylinder, and continue slicing.
- Place the blossom shreds into a bowl of cold water and add the 2 Tbsp of lemon juice or white vinegar to prevent the leaves from turning brown.
- Use your fingers to separate the slices into rings and let sit for 20 minutes.
- Drain and rinse once, but keep in water until ready to use; drain again when ready to use.
- Once you have prepared the banana blossoms, place chicken in a bowl and add half the dressing; set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl, add the banana blossom shreds, chicken, and remaining salad ingredients, including the remaining salad dressing. Toss thoroughly and arrange on the reserved outer banana blossom leaves; garnish with ground peanuts and fried shallots; serve immediately.
