I love citrus, cumin, and cilantro. This might be the holy trinity for me. So this recipe was not going to fail. Bobby Flay is a man after my own heart. I actually added more lime to my helping because the more sour the better. It's what I like. I can't get enough of the cumin. The seed packed an extra punch. You really have to like onions too, he is not shy with the onions. That was the only thing I scaled back on, half and onion sliced thinly was more than enough for me. My mouth is literally watering just thinking of this salad. I think I know what I'm having for dinner tonight.

I thought this was a nice flavor -- I followed the advice of others and just used a little olive oil. I used regular cumin in the dressing instead of cumin seeds. I threw some frozen corn into the salad too for a southwest look. Would be great with some chicken! Nice fresh flavor. I'd definately make a bottle of the dressing to leave in the fridge.

Delicious! I used regular ground cumin as I didn't have seeds and all was good. The tastes were great with a cuban menu.
