BITTER GREENS SALAD WITH LEMON-MUSTARD DRESSING

Bitter Greens Salad With Lemon-Mustard Dressing image

This recipe, adapted from the Los Angeles restaurant Mozza, dresses mixed frisée lightly, with a simple dressing of two kinds of mustard, lemon juice and olive oil. It's done in minutes, and serves as a light, tart side for pretty much any occasion, whether a holiday feast or a weeknight meal.

APPLE AND BITTER LETTUCES SALAD

Apple and Bitter Lettuces Salad image

You can use a mix of lettuces for this salad, and you can also add some milder lettuce. My favorite combination is endive, radicchio and arugula. It is a simple salad with wonderful contrasts. Dice the apples small.

LEAFY HERB SALAD

Leafy Herb Salad image

This salad is ideal for Thanksgiving or other huge, rich meals, something to nibble on between bites of sour cream potatoes and buttered stuffing. It's more of an idea than a recipe, so feel free to riff on the greens and herbs involved. It should have about a 1:1 ratio of salad greens to herbs, and be very lemony, with plenty of salt.

Categories dinner, lunch, quick, salads and dressings, side dish

Time 5m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

4 cups spicy greens, such as arugula, mizuna or torn mustard greens
Leaves and tender stems from 1 bunch parsley
Leaves and tender stems from 1 bunch cilantro
1 bunch chives, coarsely chopped
1 to 2 cups mint or dill leaves (optional)
1 lemon
Flaky salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil

Steps:

Combine greens in a large bowl, along with parsley, cilantro and chives. Add mint or dill leaves, if you have them on hand. (It's fine if you don't, but the more the merrier.)
Zest lemon over the greens, then halve and squeeze lemon juice all over everything. Season with flaky salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and finish with a good drizzle of olive oil. The salad should be lightly oiled, and heavy on the flaky salt and lemon juice.

CHOPPED SALAD WITH HERBS

Chopped Salad With Herbs image

Chopped Salad: Here's one excellent excuse to spend some time at the farmers' market. This salad, prepared by Mark Bittman and Sam Sifton for a holiday feast, is chock-full of fresh vegetables and worth the prep time. Hunt down a few different herbs to give the salad a complex flavor and aroma. One herb will do in a pinch, but don't skimp if you don't have to.

SOFT HERB SALAD

Soft Herb Salad image

In addition to how nice it looks, the beauty of this herb salad is that it can be as sweet or as pungent as you like, served in a big heap as a fresh first course, or a small pile as a refreshing side dish, or as a palate cleanser with a cheese course. It is especially energizing when served alongside heavy winter feasts:The leaf-green herbs, pink peppercorns and buttery golden almonds perk up the browns of roasts and braises. Picking the herbs and cleaning them is a finicky task, but can be done a day or two before.

Categories salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings (can be doubled)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

2 cups cilantro leaves
1 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 cup small dill sprigs
1 cup basil or mint leaves
1 cup arugula leaves
2 cups purslane, mâche or hearts of Boston lettuce leaves
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup sliced almonds
Salt and coarsely ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon red chile flakes or 1/2 teaspoon crushed pink peppercorns (optional)
3 tablespoons lemon juice, more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, more to taste

Steps:

Up to a day before serving, wash the herbs and greens: Fill a large bowl or clean sink with plenty of cold water. Immerse the leaves, swish around to loosen any dirt, then gently lift out. Dry in a salad spinner or by spreading them on clean kitchen towels. (If working ahead, refrigerate the dry leaves in sealed plastic bags or containers. Add a paper towel to each bag to absorb excess water.)
Melt butter in a frying pan until it sizzles. Add almonds. Sauté over low heat, until the almonds are golden and the butter is browned. Lift out almonds and drain on paper towels, reserving butter. (Butter can be kept for 1 day. Melt and cool again before assembling salad.)
When ready to serve, place greens in a large bowl. Add salt, pepper, chile flakes, almonds, cooking butter, lemon juice and olive oil. Toss gently and season to taste, then serve immediately.
