LITTLE GEM SALAD WITH GARLICKY ALMOND DRESSING

Little Gem Salad With Garlicky Almond Dressing image

This tart, garlicky dressing is made with toasted almonds and sherry vinegar for a simple but delicious green salad. Little Gem lettuce, a cross between romaine and butter lettuce, has become justly popular for a crunchy salad. Crisp and bright green with small crinkly leaves, it won't immediately wilt when dressed. If unavailable, look for similar small sturdy heads of lettuce or choose hearts of romaine.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

4 to 6 heads of Little Gem lettuce (more, if very small)
1/4 cup crushed toasted almonds (See Tip)
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

Remove wilted exterior leaves from each head of lettuce. Cut stems from the lettuce heads, separate leaves and swish in a large basin of cold water, letting any sand or dirt sink to the bottom. Lift the leaves from the water and transfer to a colander. Shake away excess water. Wrap in kitchen towels to dry or use a salad spinner.
Make the dressing: Put almonds, vinegar and garlic in a small bowl. Whisk in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Put leaves in a wide salad bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Dress lightly just before serving, using 2 or 3 tablespoons of dressing and coating leaves well. Taste and add more dressing as necessary. Store any remaining dressing in refrigerator for up to 3 days.

GARDEN SALAD

Garden Salad image

My old school Garden Salad. The one I can make any day because I always have these vegetables on hand! And sometimes, when I feel like getting really fancy, I even add a sprinkle of parsley. ????There really are no rules when it comes to a Garden Salad. Any greens, any vegetables. Make this your own!

Red & Green Salad with Toasted Almonds image

During a long Midwest winter, I crave greens and tomatoes from the garden. These leaf lettuces and grape tomatoes have a fantastic out-of-the-garden taste. Thank goodness we can get them year-round. -Jasmine Rose, Crystal Lake, Illinois

AMAZING ALMOND SALAD DRESSING

Amazing Almond Salad Dressing image

I used to go to this delicious vegetarian buffet in college. They made the most amazing almond salad dressing that I (and everyone else!) would drench salads with, not to mention any other food. After hunting far and wide for the recipe, I finally found it. Unfortunately, the restaurant closed down but I'll always have the plant-based dressing!
