MISO CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• For the dressing: Whisk together the mayonnaise, miso, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire and garlic in a medium bowl. While continuing to whisk, slowly drizzle in the oil until smooth and glossy. Add the Parmesan and stir just to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the salad: Toss together the romaine, napa cabbage and red cabbage in a large bowl. Pour half the dressing over the salad and mix with tongs to coat. Taste the salad and add more dressing if you like; store the remaining dressing in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
• Transfer the salad to a serving bowl, top with the crispy wontons and serve immediately.

STEAK SALAD WITH MISO DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil; season with salt. Add the farro and the 2 large garlic cloves. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring, until the farro is tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, return to the pot and smash the garlic into the farro. Let cool.
• Meanwhile, pound the steak to an even thickness between 2 pieces of parchment paper; season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the steak and cook, turning, until well browned, 8 to 10 minutes for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board and set aside to rest.
• Meanwhile, add the scallions to the skillet. Cook, tossing, until softened and lightly charred, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Make the dressing: Combine the vinegar, miso, honey and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl. Finely grate the small garlic clove into the bowl and whisk; season with salt and pepper. Combine the greens, cucumber, tomatoes and farro in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add 3 to 4 tablespoons of the dressing and toss to coat.
• Divide the salad among shallow bowls. Slice the steak and add to the bowls, along with the scallions. Drizzle with the remaining dressing.
