How to Prepare Nut and Seed Salad With Massaged Kale and Creamy Dressing [Vegan]
- Rinse buckwheat groats under cold water for 30 seconds. Bring a large pot of water (at least 3 cups) to a bowl, add a pinch of salt, and then add the buckwheat. Let boil uncovered for 7 minutes, then remove from heat, cover and let sit for 2 minutes, no more. Strain and rinse the buckwheat then set aside.
- Place thinly sliced kale and Brussels sprouts in a large salad bowl. Sprinkle with a touch of salt and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Using your hands, massage the oil and salt into the greens until well absorbed and the greens turn a vibrant shade of green. Add buckwheat, pumpkin seeds, hazelnuts and pomegranate seeds to the bowl.
- To make the dressing, mix together almond butter, tamari, maple syrup, vinegar, and oil in a small bowl or blender. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add an extra splash of tamari for added salt, a touch more vinegar to cut richness or a drop or two of maple syrup to round out the sweetness. Add a splash of water to thin, if needed, to get desired consistency.
- Pour half the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve with extra dressing on the side and top plates of with a few extra pomegranate seeds for color.
