Swordfish Doneness
Swordfish can dry out easily if overcooked. Aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (54-57°C) for a moist and tender result. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
Heirloom Bean Selection
Choose a variety of heirloom beans for the salad to create a more complex and interesting flavor profile. Consider using beans with different textures and colors.
Blistering Tomatoes
Use high heat to blister the tomatoes quickly. This will concentrate their sweetness and create a slightly charred flavor. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even blistering.
Vinaigrette Emulsification
Whisk the lemon vinaigrette vigorously to create a stable emulsion. This will help the vinaigrette coat the salad ingredients evenly and prevent it from separating.
