Sesame Ginger Halloumi Salad with Crispy Wontons

There is nothing I crave more in the summer than a fun salad. Any salad I make must have certain components and lots of textures to pass muster. I need crispy, chewy, crunchy, sweet, tangy, savory, and salty at least. This salad has a lot of those elements. When I was planning what to bring to the annual 9 day luncheon this year I immediately went to salad and played around with a few ideas before I got to this. Turns out, I was the only one who actually brought a  salad (there were 9 baked zitis though) and it was a huge hit. Adding the wonton crisps is a little extra and not necessary but really added another great texture. Apparently you can buy them  already fried but I didn’t get that memo and stood and fried them in 92 degree weather. Worth it! For the dressing: 1 1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger 1/3 cup maple syrup 2 1/2 tsp toasted sesame oil 1/4 cup rice vinegar  2 Tbl fresh lime juice (juice of a large lime) 3/4 cup neutral oil (I used light olive oil) 1 tsp salt  Add all the ingr
