Hướng dẫn

1. For the quick-pickled shallots: Thinly slice the shallots and add them to a mason jar. Cover with the apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, sweetener of choice, and 2 pinches of salt. Close the lid, shake, and set aside for 15 to 20 minutes.

2. In a small skillet over medium-low heat, toast the walnuts for about 2 minutes, stirring to avoid burning. Set aside to cool and then chop.

3. In a large salad bowl, combine the lettuce, avocado, radishes, toasted walnuts, parsley, and tarragon.

4. For the dressing: In a food processor, combine the mayo, olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, mint, and tarragon and blend for a minute. Add salt and pepper to taste.

5. Pour the dressing over the salad. Top with the lemon zest, feta, and as many pickled shallots as desired.
