Whole Endive Salad With Anchovy Dressing Food

MIXED GREEN SALAD WITH LEMON, OLIVES AND ANCHOVIES

ENDIVE SALAD WITH EGG AND ANCHOVY

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Pound together (or hand chop) garlic and 4 anchovy fillets to make a rough paste. Transfer mixture to a small bowl.
• Add 2 tablespoons lemon juice, zest and Dijon mustard and stir well. Season with salt and pepper.
• Whisk in olive oil. Taste and adjust lemon juice, salt and pepper. Just before preparing salad, taste vinaigrette again and adjust seasoning as needed.
• Cut the bottoms off of endives and discard any withered outer leaves. Separate the leaves and pile them in a large salad bowl. (Cut the hearts in half or quarters lengthwise.) Add the radicchio, if using.
• Just before serving, sprinkle leaves lightly with salt and pepper, and drizzle with 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Toss gently, then distribute among six to eight plates. Garnish each plate with an egg cut in half or into quarters, and an anchovy fillet, then drizzle plates with remaining dressing.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH ANCHOVY DRESSING

Steps:

• In a blender, combine lemon juice, garlic and kosher salt. Let sit for 2 minutes, then add anchovies and parsley, and blend to combine.
• With blender running, drizzle in oil until emulsified. Taste and add more lemon or kosher salt if necessary.
• In a large bowl, toss together arugula and just enough of the dressing to coat the leaves (you may not need all of it). Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and pepper and serve immediately.

SALAD WITH ANCHOVY-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• To make the dressing, use the flat side of a knife or a mortar and pestle to make a paste out of garlic and a pinch of salt. In a small bowl, whisk together garlic paste, anchovy, mustard and lemon juice. Slowly whisk in oil until combined. Season with salt and pepper and more lemon if desired.
• In a large bowl, toss enough dressing with arugula and radicchio to lightly coat leaves. Serve immediately.

ESCAROLE SALAD WITH ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• For the croutons: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; position an oven rack in the middle of the oven.
• In a large bowl, toss the bread cubes with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread the bread cubes on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool. (The croutons will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.)
• For the escarole: Preheat a grill on medium heat.
• Cut the escarole head in half, then wash and dry. Grill the escarole cut-side down to give it a little char, about 3 minutes. (Do not flip and cook the other side. We are looking for just some of the escarole to be charred.) Set aside and let cool.
• For the warm anchovy vinaigrette: In a small saucepot, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over low heat until shimmering. Add the shallots and anchovies and cook, stirring, until the shallots have softened and the anchovies fall apart and dissolve in the oil, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the red pepper flakes. Add the vinegar and cook, stirring, until it has reduced slightly, about 1 minute. Whisk in the remaining 4 tablespoons oil.
• Cut the escarole into 1-inch pieces and put in a large bowl. Add the vinaigrette and croutons and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

SUMMER SALAD WITH ANCHOVY DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Cook the beans for 4 mins, so they still have a slight crunch, then scoop out with a slotted spoon into a colander and cool quickly with cold water. Tip the potatoes into the pan, add the eggs and simmer everything for 8 mins. Lift out the eggs, then leave to cool while the potatoes cook for 2 more mins until tender. Drain the potatoes.
• For the dressing, mash the anchovies with the side of a knife, then mix with the vinegar and olive oil in a large bowl. Stir in the beans, potatoes, olives and tomatoes. Peel and halve the eggs. Put the leaves into a large serving bowl, add the potato mix and eggs, then serve.
