MSG Free Ginger-Lime Radish & Cucumber Salad

This bright, crunchy salad is the kind of thing you want on the table all summer long — peppery radishes and cool cucumber sliced thin, tossed with fresh herbs and a zingy lime dressing that genuinely wakes up your palate. The quick salt-and-rest step draws out a little moisture from the vegetables first, which means the dressing clings beautifully instead of pooling at the bottom of the bowl. Coconut aminos stand in for soy sauce here, delivering that savory depth without any of the additives that make conventional soy products a concern for people avoiding flavor enhancers. Fresh ginger, lime juice, a touch of honey, and a pinch of turmeric round out the dressing with real, whole ingredients — nothing from a packet, nothing to second-guess on a label. Scallion greens and cilantro weave through every bite, and a handful of torn mint at the end takes the whole thing somewhere almost refreshing enough to count as a beverage. It comes together in minutes and tastes like something you'd order at a restaurant that actually cares about its produce.
