Salad
Our Poivre a la Mode Citrus Pepper combines fragrant lemon zest and black pepper with tart amchoor powder (dried unripe mango), coriander, delicately spicy Aleppo chile flakes and savory herbs and onion to create an elegant take on lemon pepper.
Whisk this blend into the easiest salad dressing for the simplest summer zucchini salad. It’s a perfect side dish as-is or with the addition of a handful of fresh mint or basil; toasted nuts or crumbled feta cheese.
Ingredients
- Juice of a lemon
- 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Oaktown Spice Shop Poivre a la Mode Citrus Pepper
- 1 teaspoon flake salt
- 1 pound zucchini
Directions
- First, make the dressing by whisking together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and Poivre a la Mode.
- Trim the ends of the zucchini. Use a mandoline or vegetable peeler to peel the zucchini into thin strips. When you are ready to serve, combine the zucchini and the dressing and toss to coat. Taste and add salt or more lemon juice if desired.
- Optional add-ins: fresh herbs such as mint or basil, toasted pine nuts.
I think this dressing would be good on mandoline-slivered cucumbers, also.
