This was a nice enough salad, but I didn't think it was a triumph of complementary flavors or anything. The only substitutions I made were a drop of blackcurrant syrup in plain vinegar (because I didn't have raspberry vinegar), and a mix of greens (butter lettuce/nasturtium/arugula) for the mesclun. I had great blueberries and nice feta, and the greens were lovely, but it's not destined to be a classic, in my opinion.
