Honey Curry Spinach Salad
Dressing
½ onion, chopped
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp curry powder
½ tsp mustard powder or 1 tsp Dijon mustard
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp celery seed
½ tsp salt
½ cup cider vinegar
½ cup honey
1 cup safflower oil
Salad
½ lb spinach leaves
½ cup tasted almonds
½ cup red onion sliced
1 orange peeled and sliced
In blender, combine onion, paprika, curry powder, mustard, turmeric, celery seed and salt. Blend well, then add vinegar and honey. Add safflower oil in a slow, steady stream. Toss salad with just enough of the dressing to coat spinach (there will be enough dressing for more than one salad).
Spinach and Pea Soup
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, finely minced
1 garlic clove, finely minced
Salt and pepper to taste
1 3/4 cups chicken broth, preferably homemade
1 pound fresh shelling peas, shelled (about 1 cup)
6 cups spinach tough stems discarded
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup tiny infant greens, such as micro greens or mache
1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add stock, and bring to a boil. Add peas, and return to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in spinach. Cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach has wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Using an immersion blender, puree until smooth. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Divide the soup among four soup bowls. Toss micro greens with remaining teaspoon oil and 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice. Garnish soup bowls with the greens mixture, lightly sprinkle with grated cheese. Serve immediately.
