What a feast for both the palate and the eyes. It not only tastes amazing, it’s a delicate yet vivacious piece of art composed of vegetables, flowers and herbs — a symphony from the garden. Just looking at it makes me hungry. The ingredients change daily depending on what’s fresh and available. My salad included peas, broccoli, asparagus, mushrooms, beans, carrots, tomatoes and more. The vibrant colors of greens, yellows, oranges, reds and purples literally illustrate the dynamic tastes of summer. Pistachios act as a colorful balancing agent by adding an earthier taste to the lightness of the garden-fresh veggies. While one may think that, however beautiful, a salad is just a salad, this one at Blue Hill refutes that argument. The vegetables are so fresh and alluring. And each bite taken creates a kaleidoscope of combination and sensation. The vegetables don’t get boring, instead each taste alters your dining experience. How utterly refreshing!
