Cucumber - Apple Salad with grapes and Asiago

My mother came home from the market with a whole lot of cucumbers and a whole lot of apples. So they became Super Bowl Salad.

This recipe is quick. Like, stupid quick. The first time I made it, my wife, daughter and I were on our way to a neighbour's house for dinner. Not wanting to arrive empty-handed, I decided to whip up a quick salad. I was able to do so in the time it took for my daughter to find her coat and boots and put them on. She dawdles, so it was about 5 minutes. To help with the mood, I put on Vivaldi's Winter, a.k.a the Chef's Table theme (yes, it's on my playlist). I have an almost Pavlovian response to that piece of music, which basically turns me into the Roadrunner from the old Looney Tunes cartoons. Anyway, despite the rushed prep, the salad was a hit. So here it is. For safety's sake, I padded out the cook time a bit.

This is a very fresh salad with a wonderful flavor.

A refreshing addition to accompany a heavy meat fest! Made this for a Xmas potluck! Very easy and can be made ahead.I use mirin to balance the flavours, you can also use coconut sugar instead. The chili flakes add a spicy extra kick to this salad.I also use a ziplock bag to reduce washing fi dishes.

Love!
