Here's a recipe Mark Bittman picked up on a road trip with his daughter across the United States, from the Black Market restaurant in Indianapolis. Kale and sugar snap peas combine with a dressing of ginger, miso and rice vinegar, with dried apricots and feta cheese, almonds and mint - a riot of flavors, and an excellent meal.
