Dilly Lentil Salad, Kiku Corner Dilly Lentil Salad, Kiku Corner  Dilly Lentil Salad, Kiku Corner Several summers ago, I spent a few weeks at our family friends’ farm north of Toronto. Their Polish grandparents came to visit and brought along a few giant bunches of fresh dill. For the next several days, every meal included dill, much to one grandson’s chagrin. Potatoes, eggs, fish – all covered with dill. Fresh dill has such a stronger, brighter flavour than dried dill, so take advantage of the summer by using as many fresh herbs as you can! I love the different colours in this salad, the bright green dill, the magenta radishes, and the jewel-like cranberries. Refer to my Summery Garlic Salad Dressing to dress this salad – that is also quick and easy.
