Notes

Tips & Tricks: Start with a small amount of chili paste. But, if you like a lot of heat, feel free to use 2 to 3 teaspoons. In addition, use a mild olive oil to bring out the crisp flavors of this salad. Then, finish the salad with fresh cracked pepper and a pinch of coarse sea salt. The salt especially brings out the sweetness in the plums.
