Summer Salad Amuse Bouche - Recipe

Summer_Amuse_Salad

Only worth doing if you have a garden, or at least farmer's market produce from today. Super simple but a pretty amazing pop of gazpacho-like flavor in your mouth.

Finely diced Kirby cucumber
Peas in their pod, thinly sliced - keep just the slices that have both pod and seed
Peeled cherry tomato
Tiny lemon basil leaves
Maldon sea salt
A few drops of your best olive oil

Sometimes it doesn't have to be complicated...
