Chef’s Pro Tips

  • For extra flavor, broil the salmon for the last 2 minutes to get a nice char.
  • Massage the dressing into the greens gently to ensure even coating without wilting.
  • Toasted sesame seeds add a nutty crunch—toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, stirring frequently.
