Salmon and farm-fresh vegetables combine to create an on-trend bowl with bold Asian flavors. Chef Holland-Toll of the Stanford University Flavor Lab sources cauliflower, squash, cherry tomatoes and spinach to highlight the color and flavor of the seafood, then ties the ingredients together with a kimchi vinaigrette blended with rice vinegar, tamari and toasted sesame oil.
