Japanese Apple Salad

This crunchy and tart Japanese Apple Salad with raisins is inspired by my mom‘s recipe. I use sweet Meyer lemon and plain yogurt to add tang to the creamy dressing for this light and refreshing side dish. It‘s so quick and easy to make!

  2. Cut 4 Fuji apples into thin slices, then cut the slices into small pieces.
  3. Keep the apples in salted water (add 1 tsp salt to a big bowl of water) for 1–2 minutes to prevent browning. Drain and dry the apple pieces with a clean kitchen towel.
