Chayote Mayo Sprinkles Salad

Ingredients

• 3 chayotes
• 2 tbsp Taiwanese mayonnaise (store-bought or homemade*)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 pinch rainbow sprinkles

Equipment

• Saucepan or pot for blanching chayote

Instructions

1. Peel, deseed, and chop the chayote into wedges or 1-2” chunks.
2. Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Blanch the chayote for 1 minute. Strain and put the chayote into an ice bath to stop the cooking.
3. Strain the cooled chayote. Taste for texture—it should be mildly salty and still crisp. Arrange on a serving platter.
4. Squeeze the mayonnaise over the chayote. Top with rainbow sprinkles. Alternatively, toss the chayote in the mayonnaise, then add sprinkles as the final garnish.
