Dressing: Combine all of the ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Screw the lid on the jar tightly and shake thoroughly. You get to choose how acidic you like your dressing to be. We recommend a ratio of 3:1 oil and vinegar.

To serve: Arrange all ingredinets to a platter or serving bowl and top with crunchy almond shaves, cooked edamame (for about 5-10 min in boiling water), and chickpeas. Drizzle with dressing.
