Turnip And Radish Slaw With Jumbo Lump Crabmeat And Chive Oil

This elegant salad is made up of thinly sliced turnips and radishes that are lightly tossed with a champagne vinaigrette, then topped with creamy, succulent crabmeat and drizzled with Chive Oil.

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon minced shallot
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
  • 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon leaves
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chervil leaves
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
  • 1 teaspoon chopped drained nonpareil capers
  • 1 teaspoon chopped cornichon
  • 1/3 cup champagne vinegar
  • 3/4 cup grapeseed oil
  • salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground white pepper, to taste
  • 1 turnip (about the size of a baseball), peeled and julienned
  • 1 small bunch radishes (about 6), julienned
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise, store-bought or homemade
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over for shells and cartilage
  • 1 recipe Chive oil and Chive blossoms, for garnish (optional)

Directions

  • In a small bowl, combine the shallot, chives, mustard, tarragon, chervil, parsley, capers, cornichon, vinegar, and grapeseed oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • In a medium mixing bowl, toss 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette with the turnip and radishes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • Combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and cayenne in a medium bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette and mix well. Add the crabmeat and toss to coat.

  • To serve, divide the turnip-radish slaw among four to six chilled plates. Spoon the crabmeat on the top of the slaw, trying to keep the crabmeat lumps as intact as possible. Drizzle the Chive Oil around each plate, and garnish with chive blossoms if desired.
