Crunchy salad with yogurt-tahine sauce

(Em Português)

Since Flávia left me a comment yesterday asking where have I been, I thought I'd better show up.

It will take years and years for me to become a constant person as I would like to be, but then - well... we need to start somewhere, right?

I am now back to São Paulo, honey, dealing with bureaucracy while the rain pours outside.

I have great reasons to have disappeared on the last week. Pretty ones really, which include seeing very dear people who I hadn't seen in ages and to celebrate a beautiful beginning (all of my love to the newly-weds!). 

Now that I am back home, I started eating more nicely again. So, here I come with another salad.

Ginger and pepper salad dressing.

I think salad recipes are something funny. I've always had this impression that salad is a matter of combining whatever you have on hand. It's just washing the leaves, chopping some vegetables, add olive oil, salt, and lemon or vinegar. There, why complicate it?

But then I saw this chinese salad recipe, from which I took the inspiration for this dressing.

And I started reading salad pride more often, because I used to just pass by there quickly to take a look at the pictures. So I changed my mind on the subject.

A classic is a classic, and vice-versa.

(In Portuguese)

The classic in question is rice and beans, which always has one small change or another, but I never get tired of it.
After a couple days without stoping at home, I went to the supermarket and cooked a lunch comme il faut.
I had it with a colorful yummy salad, and a roasted pumpkin slice that doesn't show in the pictures.
