Step by Step Method
Step 1
Pistachios ... Add the pistachios to a dry saute pan and bring to medium high heat. Cook 3-3 minutes, stirring often, until you begin to smell the nuts. Then - they are done. Remove from the heat, cool, and chop. Keep an eye on them, they don't take long.
Step 2
Dressing ... Add the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper, to a small cup or bowl and whisk to combine. Make sure to check if any additional salt and pepper is needed. Set to the side, until ready to use.
Step 3
Salad ... Add the rhubarb, strawberries, radishes, celery (and celery leaves), spinach, and mint leaves to the bowl; along with 1/2 of the dressing, and toss to combine. I like my salad lightly dressed; but, dress yours accordingly to how you like it. You can always add more dressing. Don't forget to garnish with the pistachios.
Step 4
Serve and ENJOY! ... Serve as is in a bowl family style; or, plate individually. It is a nice summer salad; and, it goes great with just about anything.
