Instructions

1 Start by making the dressing. Combine all of the ingredients in a blender or a
mason jar. Blend (or shake) until the mixture is smooth and emulsified. The
result should be a silky dressing with a perfectly sweet, tangy, and savory
balance. Set it aside to let the flavors meld while you assemble the salad.
2 The key to a great salad is uniformity, so take your time chopping everything
into small, bite-sized pieces. This ensures every bite is a medley of flavors
and textures. Dice the craisins, red peppers, and cucumbers, slice the onion
thinly, and chop the celery finely. Cut the romaine lettuce into manageable
pieces that will be easy to pick up with a fork.
3 Layer the ingredients in a large salad bowl for a stunning presentation. Start
with the chopped romaine lettuce as the base. Then, evenly over the top, scatter
the craisins, red peppers, sesame sticks, pecans, cheese, onion, cucumber, and
celery. This creates a colorful and inviting visual that will have everyone
eager to dig in.
4 Drizzle the dressing generously over the salad just before serving. Toss
everything together gently to coat every ingredient in the flavorful dressing.
