ORIGINAL LOUIS DRESSING

Steps:

• Mix together well and adjust seasonings to taste. I like to add a little extra chili sauce and not quite as much green onion. Serve chilled.

Steps:

• Combine the first 6 dressing ingredients and stir to dissolve the sugar.
• Add remaining dressing ingredients and mix well.

• Toss together with the dressing.
• Divide the lettuce among plates, top with salad and garnish each plate with 2 olives.

CRAB LOUIS

• Whisk together mayonnaise, chili sauce, scallion, green olives, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, bottled horseradish, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Pick over crabmeat, then divide among 4 plates lined with shredded iceberg lettuce. Garnish with capers and wedges of tomato, hard-boiled egg, and lemon and serve with dressing.

LOUIS SAUCE

• Evenly divide the lettuce, cucumbers, crab, shrimp, avocado, tomatoes and eggs between 4 salad plates.
• Prepare the dressing by whisking together the mayonnaise, chili sauce, relish, salt and pepper. Spoon dressing over the salad and garnish with parsley and lemon.
