CHOP SALAD WITH DRIED CRANBERRIES AND RICOTTA SALATA



Chop Salad With Dried Cranberries and Ricotta Salata image

The only knife needed here is to prepare this salad. It all chopped small enough so no need to set a knife to use while eating. Ricotta Salata is one of Italy's most unusual and least understood sheep's milk cheeses. This snow-white variation of Ricotta originated in Sicily. Spongy and smooth, Ricotta Salata is a rindless cheese made from lightly salted sheep's milk curd and whey that is pressed and dried even before the cheese is aged for at least three months, giving this pure white cheese a dense but slightly spongy texture and slightly salty, not overly salty or "sheepy." Instead, it boasts a mellow blend of nutty, milky and sweet flavors, with consistency being versatility in cooking. This is not ricotta as Americans have come to know ricotta. In Italian, ricotta simply means ""recooked."" It is a cheese-making process rather than a specific cheese. This ricotta is also a salata, or ""salted,"" cheese. If using feta in place of ricatto salata be sure to soak and rinse in cold water before diced. Try Recipe #91909 & for a dressing Recipe #121271 or fresh lemon juice if keeping the fat out of your food intake.

CHOP CHOP SALAD



Chop Chop Salad image

The best part? The Caesar-ish Dressing, which is egg- and-dairy-free, but still creamy and flavorful enough to make you think you're eating a salad with a Caesar dressing.

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Salad
2 romaine lettuce hearts, washed and chopped into bite-size pieces (about 8 cups)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/4 pound bacon, cooked until crispy and chopped into small pieces
1 1/2 pounds cooked chicken, chopped
2 avocados, pitted and diced
Caesar-ish Dressing
1 avocado, pitted and peeled
4 anchovy fillets, rinsed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or avocado oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)

Steps:

  • In a food processor or blender combine all the dressing ingredients and puree. Add more oil if you want a thinner consistency.
  • Place all the chopped salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss with the dressing. It's that easy!
  • Note
  • If you want to make the salad ahead of time, assemble everything except the avocado and dressing. Then stir in the avocado at the last minute and toss everything with the dressing.
  • Variations
  • Try prosciutto instead of bacon. Or add some feta cheese (and reduce the amount of dressing).

SPRING SALAD WITH DRIED CRANBERRIES, PISTACHIOS AND OLIVES



Spring Salad With Dried Cranberries, Pistachios and Olives image

This is what I came up with today. You can use any nut in place of the pistachios, but I found the taste of the raw pistachios very pleasant in this combonation. Also you can use any kind of green leaf salad. For the olives I used green olives stuffed with almonds. Cooking time actually is part of the preparation time because there is no cooking ...

BUCATINI AMATRICIANA WITH RICOTTA SALATA



Bucatini Amatriciana With Ricotta Salata image

Made this for dinner twice so far, and the second time it tasted even better. Cheesey and smokey works so well together in a rich tomato sauce:D Regina Schrambling says "starch is comfort" and "cheese is seduction" and when they're combined the result is pure pleasure. BF and I have to agree wholeheartedly. I can usually only find crushed tomatoes in puree, and that worked out very well so I added that as an option. I am vegetarian so I substituted vegetarian bacon for pancetta. Another recipe of the week from The Week magazine, originally from LA Times.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ounces pancetta (optional, or bacon or veggie bacon)
1 tablespoon olive oil, best quality
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes (to taste)
1 (14 ounce) can Italian tomatoes (whole in puree) or 1 (14 ounce) can Italian tomatoes (crushed in puree)
kosher salt or sea salt
1/2 lb pasta (buccatini or perciatelli)
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup ricotta salata, finely crumbled

Steps:

  • If using, cut pancetta into i/4 inch dice. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-low heat. Add pancetta and cook, stirring, until it crisps and renders its fat, about 10 minutes. Remove pancetta and set aside. Break into small pieces when cooled. Remove all but about 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan and discard.
  • Add oil and onion and cook, stirring often, until tender and translucent, about 10 minutes.
  • Add red pepper flakes then add tomatoes and crush against the pan if using whole. Cook, stir and crush tomatoes into small bits, for 5 minutes.
  • Simmer 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • While sauce cooks, bring large pot of water to a rolling boil with salt (about 1 Tbsp for every 2 quarts - it should be salty). Fifteen minutes before sauce is done, add pasta to water. Stir and then cook until al dente, 11-12 minutes or according to package directions.
  • Reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water, drain pasta in colander. Add butter and toss quickly, then transfer to pan with sauce. Stir until strands are thinly but evenly coated. Add a little cooking liquid if pasta seems dry. Add half Ricotta Salata and stir to combine well.
  • Transfer pasta to large bowl or platter and sprinkle with pancetta and remaining cheese. Serve hot.
  • For Vegetarian omit the pancetta or use vegetarian bacon.
