New Way Wedge Salad Food
WEDGE SALAD
Wedge salads are essential steakhouse fare and have been for decades - "iceberg wedges, blue cheese, bacon" was Roger Sterling's order on "Mad Men" when he and Don Draper saved the Madison Square Garden account in Season 3, set in 1963. But there is no reason not to bring them home: Pale green-white triangles of commodity iceberg drizzled in pale white-blue dressing, with crumbles of bacon and bright red pops of cherry tomato, and pricks of green chive strewn across the top. Serve a wedge and a steak, or a wedge and a hamburger, or a wedge and a roast chicken, or just a wedge and a lot of warm bread and cold red wine, and it's a pleasant evening you're having, a retro delight. Wedge is a salad for pleasure.

Steps:
- Combine the tomatoes, shallots and vinegar in a small bowl, and shower with salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a sauté pan until crisp on both sides, then drain on a paper towel. Crumble when cool, and set aside.
- Make the dressing. Put half the cheese into a medium-size bowl, and mash with a whisk. Add the buttermilk, mayonnaise, olive oil, hot sauce, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce, then mash and whisk the dressing until it is mostly smooth. You may wish for a little more hot sauce, lemon juice or Worcestershire, to taste. Then whisk again, and set aside.
- Assemble the salad. Place one wedge of lettuce on each plate, and gently spoon dressing over it. Sprinkle each wedge with crumbled bacon, the dressed tomato halves, the remaining blue cheese and some minced chives.

WEDGE SALAD
Steps:
- For the salad: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set a rack on the baking sheet and lay the bacon on it in a single layer. Cook until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes, turning halfway through. When cool enough to handle, chop coarsely.
- For the ranch dressing: In a bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, add the buttermilk, sour cream, chives, mayonnaise, parsley, lemon juice, salt, celery seed, onion powder, garlic powder, garlic and scallions and whisk together (or shake vigorously if using a jar).
- Assembly: Lay a lettuce wedge on each of 6 salad plates. Drizzle each wedge with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the dressing, letting it flow between the leaves of the lettuce and pool on the plate. Sprinkle over the tomatoes, onion and bacon. Garnish with the chives.
- Any leftover dressing can be refrigerated for up to 1 week.

- Slice the shallots either crosswise into thin rings or lengthwise into thin strips. Add the shallots and vegetable oil to a skillet and place over medium heat. Use a spatula to stir the shallots until the slices are separated. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes until tender.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking and stirring a couple more minutes, until the shallots are golden brown. Watch carefully and do not burn! Remove the shallots with a slotted spoon to a paper towel lined plate and cool completely.
- Rinse the head of lettuce and remove the outermost leaves. Cut the lettuce in halve through the core, then cut each half into two wedges. Trim the bottom core and place each wedge on a plate.
- Drizzle each wedge with 2 tablespoons (or more) of the blue cheese dressing. Evenly sprinkle the diced tomatoes, red onion, and bacon over the dressing. If desired, drizzle 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar over top.

- Add all of the dressing ingredients to a medium bowl and stir well to combine. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or can be made several days in advance.
- Cut the bacon into pieces and cook the bacon in a skillet until crisp. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels.
- Cut the iceberg lettuce in half. Cut each of the halves again in half or thirds (depending on how big the ice berg lettuce head is), to create "wedges". Place wedges on individual plates.
- To serve, spoon dressing over lettuce and then sprinkle the bacon crumbles, tomatoes, onion and blue cheese crumbles on top. Season with fresh crushed black pepper, to taste.
