This salad is perfect for those times when you wish to put a light summer dinner on the table yet not stay in the kitchen too long. Any greens, like Napa cabbage, will do, but Asian bok choi, kale, or tatsoi lend themselves best to this study in contrasts. A fruity China black tea, such as Keemun or Yunnan, stands up well to the assertive flavor of the greens. Some crusty whole grain bread and a bottle of sturdy red wine will round out the meal.
