When I looked at the recipe, I was unsure of how yummy this salad would turn out using such few ingredients. However, by the first bite, I was proven wrong. I was genuinely surprised by how much flavor was compacted into this simple recipe. The vinegar and olive oil re-created this balsamic vinaigrette flavor while at the same time emphasizing the presence of the ’ulu. To top off, I added some goat cheese!
