Butter Lettuce Kabocha Blossom Red Onion Vineg

Isn't this beautiful to look at and tasty as well? Yes, this is one of my favourite salad I ever made. Light and very gourmet. I have Kabocha squash blossoms in my backyard, making it into tempura. So so good with butter lettuce, crispy sage, fresh bing cherries, cherry tomatoes, green onions and most importantly, the red onions vineg. It is actually so easy to prepare, just that you need to fry the kabocha blossoms. Well, just do it and you will enjoy it.
