    Can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream.

    I made the goddess dressing without the ginger as the salad was paired with ribs in a traditional SW barbecue sauce. I added the pickled shallots but not the sugar-toasted sunflower seeds. This was a great salad and now I’m eager to make the full recipe.

    Very nice flavor - but the effort to result ratio isn't worth it for me. Sugar snap peas take forever to prep. Shallots need to be made 4 hours in advance and the sugared sunflower seeds dirty another and.

    The dressing here is quite nice, even though I omitted the tarragon and parsley since I had none on hand. Using a mix of peas, pickled shallot, and candied sunflower seeds gives the salad an appealing variety of tastes and textures. Unfortunately, mine was marred by the fact that many of my sugar snaps turned out to have tough outer shells. With good peas, this would be a stand out salad.
