This salad is a vibrant option, packed with textures and colors that provide impressive nutritional density.

Professional Step-by-Step Preparation
-
Preparing the peas: If using fresh or frozen peas, blanch them in boiling water with a pinch of Bonsalt for 3-5 minutes until tender but firm. Refresh them immediately in ice water so they keep their bright green color. If canned, rinse and drain well.
-
Treating the beetroot: Cut the cooked beetroot into uniform cubes of about one centimeter.
-
Cutting the spring onion: Finely julienne the spring onion. If you want a milder flavor, you can rinse it under cold water before adding it.
-
Assembly: In a large bowl, mix the peas, beetroot, spring onion, and bean sprouts. Be careful when mixing so the beetroot does not over-stain the rest of the ingredients.
-
Technical vinaigrette: In a small bowl, emulsify the olive oil, lemon juice, ginger, and a generous amount of Bonsalt 0%.
-
Final touch: Pour the dressing over the salad, toss gently, and top with the seeds to add a crunchy contrast.
