Sunflower and pea shoot microgreens have enough body to serve as a complete salad base. They hold dressing well and have distinct flavor — unlike lettuce, they contribute to the dish rather than just carrying it.
For a simple salad, sunflower microgreens provide crunch and a mild nutty flavor, while pea shoots add a light sweetness. Either works as the main green or layered alongside other ingredients.
Rambo radish microgreens add the most pronounced flavor — a bold, peppery bite similar to horseradish. They work best scattered over a salad rather than used as the full base.
Salads benefit from microgreens that either build the base or finish the dish. ChefPax recommends sunflower as the primary base variety for its crunch and mild flavor, pea shoots when you want sweetness and height, and radish when you want spice as a finishing element.
