Romaine Salad With Carrots Celery Kalamatas Parmesan Vinaigrette Food

CHOPPED GREEK SALAD

Steps:

• In a large serving bowl, combine the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, pepper, onion, parsley, olives and feta. Toss the ingredients together and set aside.
• To prepare the vinaigrette, combine all of the ingredients in a liquid measuring cup and whisk until blended. Taste, and add more vinegar if you'd like a more tangy dressing, or more honey for a more tame dressing.
• If you'll be serving all of the salad at once, go ahead and drizzle enough dressing in to lightly coat the salad and toss to combine. I prefer to store the salad and dressing separately so I can enjoy salad for a few days. Whisk the dressing again before drizzling (if the olive oil solidifies a bit in the refrigerator, don't worry, that's normal-just let it warm up for about 5 minutes at room temperature or microwave for 10 to 20 seconds).

CELERY AND PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

• At least 1 hour before you plan to serve the salad, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, the shallots, celery seed, celery salt, anchovy paste, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Place the celery in a mixing bowl and toss it with the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. (Even though these ingredients are in the dressing, believe me-this step makes a difference.) Add enough dressing to moisten well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to allow the celery to crisp and the flavors to develop.
• When ready to serve, arrange the celery on a platter, shave the Parmesan onto the celery with a vegetable peeler, then sprinkle with walnuts, parsley leaves, salt, and pepper and serve immediately.

ITALIAN ROMAINE SALAD

Steps:

• Roll each lemon on the countertop with the palm of your hand, using gentle pressure (this will help release the juices). Cut 1 lemon in half; squeeze juice from each half. Use enough lemons until you have 1/4 cup lemon juice. Peel and finely chop the garlic. In a tightly covered jar or container, shake lemon juice, garlic, oil, salt and pepper.
• Remove any limp outer leaves from the romaine and discard. Break remaining leaves off the core; rinse with cool water. Shake off excess water and blot to dry, or roll up the leaves in a clean kitchen towel or paper towel to dry. Tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. You will need about 10 cups of romaine pieces.
• Peel the onion; slice onion and separate into rings.
• In a large glass or plastic bowl, place the romaine, onion, olives and artichoke hearts (with liquid). Shake the vinaigrette again to mix ingredients. Pour vinaigrette over the salad ingredients, and toss with 2 large spoons or salad tongs until evenly coated.

ROMAINE SALAD WITH CARROTS, CELERY, KALAMATAS & PARMESAN VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Combine the garlic, yolk and mustard in the bowl of an electric food processor. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the Worcestershire and lemon juice and process again until smooth. With the food processor running, very slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube, adding only a few drops at a time and allowing the oil to incorporate fully and thicken the sauce. Add the grated Parmesan and give a few long pulses to combine. This can be kept refrigerated in an air-tight container for about 2 days. Keep in mind though, the texture is best around room temperature. Cooling the dressing will thicken it. But this can be fixed by whisking in a small amount of water (about 1/4 to 1/3 cup). For the rest of the salad: In a large mixing bowl, combine the romaine with the sliced carrots, celery and kalamata olives. Add enough dressing to coat it well. (You won’t need to use it all.) Toss well to coat, then add the grated parmesan and season with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Transfer to a platter or serving plates. Serve immediately.
