directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Brush salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until salmon feels slightly firm to touch but not cooked through. Remove. It will continue to cook as it cools.
  2. While the salmon bakes, bring a small saucepan of water to a boil then submerge fresh peas. Cook for 1 minute until peas begin to float. Move to an ice bath.
  3. Next, make the vinaigrette. Combine all ingredients except the oil in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil.
  4. To assemble the salad, place greens in a large bowl, add blanched peas, carrots, Grated Ginger (drained of brine), then flake on the roasted salmon. Drizzle on dressing and serve.
