The Crunchiest Vegetable Salad

Ingredients for The Crunchiest Vegetable Salad

• 1/2 English hothouse cucumber, very thinly sliced

• 4 small radishes, trimmed, very thinly sliced

• 2 spring onions, very thinly sliced

• 450g mixed snap beans (such as green, wax, and/or Romano)

• Koshersalt

• 110g sugar snap peas

• 45ml fresh lime juice

Place cucumber, radishes, and spring onions in a colander set inside a bowl of ice water. Press down on vegetables to submerge. Let soak, stirring occasionally, until very firm and crunchy, at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour. Drain and pat dry.

Meanwhile, cook beans in a large pot of boiling generously salted water just until their colour intensifies and they are barely softened, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, immediately transfer to a large bowl of salted ice water (use about 1 tablespoon salt for every 1.9L water).

Return water in pot to a boil and repeat cooking process with sugar snap peas; add to bowl of ice water with beans. Let vegetables cool; drain and pat dry. Trim beans and remove strings from sugar snap peas. Slice into large pieces on a steep diagonal.

Whisk lime juice, oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds, and sugar in a large bowl; season dressing with salt and pepper. Add beans and peas and toss to coat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add cucumber, radishes, and spring onions and toss to combine. Transfer to a platter.

Beans and peas can be blanched 2 days ahead. Cover and chill. Dressing can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
