A good company, hitching and a warm kitchen makes the ideas fly in the mind of a hungry traveler.
While thumbing a ride between Oulu and Denmark I decided to rest a day couchsurfing in my old couchurfers friend kitchen in Stockholm. A day turned into four relaxing days and among other cookings a composed salad was created and eaten with pleasure while making jokes about my almost obsessive use of nuts and honey.
Still, I thought the salad was missing apples; only cinnamon was something I didn’t think of using amongst other spices.
This is what I used:
Half of head lettuce
Half of cucumber
Two garlic cloves
One onion
Two carrots
Sesame and sunflower seeds
Almond
Salt, pepper and lemon pepper
Thyme, fennel seeds and oregano
Lemon juice
sesame oil
Honey
Vinegar
Chop carrots, onions and garlic and cook them in a pan until carrots are a bit soft. Then add almonds and seeds and roast a bit. Let them cool.
Wash and chop salad and cucumber and mix them together.
Make the sauce for them mixing sesame oil, just a hint of vinegar, all spices and some honey.
Mix with the salad and enjoy with every bite. But don’t go nuts, honey ;)
