Purslane Shishito Salad

Hi Everyone, this Purslane Shishito Salad has two of my favorite purslane and Shishito peppers.

It has tasty flavors of soy sauce and sesame oil that add so much depth of flavor.

I love using purslane in recipes, it has so many nutritional benefits, it's a foraged plant that can also be bought at farmer's markets and CSA shares.

I invite you to check out our other recipes (that have the ingredients, purslane and Shishito peppers), here on the blog, in the search box, and linked in this post.
