Little Gem Salad With Buttermilk Chaas

Chaas is an Indian buttermilk beverage, but “it’s much better as a salad dressing than a post-basketball drink,” says Vivek Surti, the chef at Tailor in Nashville, No. 7 on our 2019 Hot Ten list. “It’s buttermilk seasoned with mustard seeds, cumin seeds, curry leaves, and dried red chiles. I drizzle it over a mix of greens and whatever I’m into—tomatoes, beets, nuts.” Mix it up to make it your own. But don’t start to heat the oil until all of the chaas seasonings are measured out and close at hand; blooming the spices goes quickly.
