    This salad is good and refreshing. I actually made my own semi-dried tomatoes in the oven. I prefer them than the ones from the shop.

    This is a great salad for winter when you're missing summer tomatoes. I used Pomodoraccio semi-dried tomatoes (even using the tomato oil from the jar in the dressing), which are a splurge but have an amazing, rich tomato flavor and almost melt in your mouth. I left out the radicchio since I didn't have any on hand. My salad did turn out a little salty, probably because of the salted capers. Be sure to rinse them very thoroughly if you are using salt packed capers, or season the dressing sparingly. Using 20 radishes as called for seemed like overkill, however; I scaled down the salad to make two large portions, but only used four radishes and found that to be enough.

    easy and very pretty with the contrast of the red and white against the green lettuce

    I had a spring mix of lettuces, and some purple spring onions, but other than that I followed the recipe. I agree with the "exploding with flavour" description. I loved the tomatoes roasted with thyme, I could have eaten an entire plate of them. Mr. Nightshade, however, felt the dressing was too lemony, and consequently the salad too tart. No accounting for taste!

    ...the recipe combines several kind of lettuce, radicchio, radishes, tomatoes, green onions, and capers, and I think those flavors go perfectly with the lemony vinaigrette he uses.
