Southern Pea Salad with Herb Buttermilk Dressing 

 

This fresh Southern pea salad is pure summer on a plate. Tender field peas, sweet corn, juicy tomatoes, and crisp cucumber are tossed in a light, tangy herb buttermilk dressing that keeps things bright and flavorful without being heavy. 

 

It’s quick to put together, perfect for potlucks, cookouts, or an easy side with grilled shrimp or fish. Make it ahead and let it chill so the flavors can meld — it only gets better.
