Surimi Salad With Greens Jacques Pepin Recipes

SURIMI SALAD WITH GREENS (JACQUES PEPIN)

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except the salad greens in a medium bowl. I reduce the surimi into smaller flakes or pieces, but it's up to you.
• Divide the greens among four plates, top with greens.
• I often add other herbs - garlic chives, thyme or lemon thyme, dill. I also omit the salt - surimi is salted, and I really don't think the salad needs additional salt, but do it to your taste.
