Ingredients
  

For the dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons* (40ml) olive oil or oil of choice
  • 1 tablespoon* (20ml) maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon* Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon* (20ml) lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup (60ml)* (60ml) Orange Kombucha or water
  • Seasoning to taste

For the salad:

  • 1/2 – 1 head of radicchio sliced (wash and slice the greens, too, if your radishes still have them)
  • 1/2 large fennel mandolined or finely sliced
  • 3-4 watermelon or regular radishes mandolined or finely sliced
  • 1 bunch of mint chopped
  • 1/2 – 2/3 cup pitted olives I used half Calvestrano and half Kalamata
  • 1/2 cup walnuts
  • 180-200 g feta crumbled into small cubes (Greek or Danish both work well, see notes)
  • 3-4 medjool dates pip removed and finely chopped (optional)
  • Small handful of pistachios to finish (optional, for colour)
  • 3-4 large oranges peeled and sliced

Instructions
 

  • Place all the ingredients for the dressing in a clean medium jar and gently shake to combine. The kombucha is fizzy so don’t go overboard with the shaking. Taste and adjust for seasoning, then set aside.
  • Arrange all the ingredients except for the oranges (and Danish feta or goat’s cheese, if you’re using it) on a large serving platter. Pour over most of the dressing and toss to combine and coat.
  • Orange slices, Danish feta and goat’s cheese are all prone to breaking up in the salad if tossed excessively, which is why we add them last. Greek feta is harder and can easily withstand being tossed in salad.
  • Add the orange and cheese if you’re using Danish or goat, then toss very gently to combine. Finish with the leftover dressing and some extra seasoning and serve.
