Categories     Salad Dressing

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, to taste
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey, to taste
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
½ teaspoon fine sea salt
About 20 twists of freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a jar or small bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients until fully blended. Sometimes, if your mustard is cold, it will need a few minutes to warm up before it fully incorporates.
  • Taste, and adjust if necessary-for more tartness, add another teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, or for more sweetness/balance, add another teaspoon or two of maple syrup (I usually add one).
  • This salad dressing will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 10 days. Real olive oil can solidify slightly when cold; if that happens, simple let it warm to room temperature for a few minutes or microwave it in a microwave-safe jar for no more than 15 to 30 seconds.

SALAD GREENS WITH PEPITA DRESSING



Salad Greens with Pepita Dressing image

Chef Gabriela Cámara likens her pepita dressing to a Mexican pesto, with toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds) standing in for pine nuts. Here it's used to lightly coat fresh greens for a simple yet delicious salad, but it's also a wonderful condiment for grilled chicken or fish.

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups mixed salad greens, washed and dried, such as little gems, radicchio, frisée
1/4 cup Pepita Dressing, divided, recipe follows
1/2 cup toasted pepitas, plus additional for garnish if desired, toast in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 2 minutes
2 sprigs flat-leaf parsley, 10-15 leaves
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste
1/2 serrano pepper, to reduce heat, remove seeds and membrane

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, add greens, tearing larger leaves into pieces. Drizzle with 2 to 3 tablespoons Pepita Dressing and gently toss with your hands to coat. (Using tongs may damage the leaves.) Dollop 1 tablespoon dressing on the bottom of a serving bowl, then arrange tossed salad on top. If desired, garnish with more pepitas before serving.
  • In a food processor, add pepitas, parsley leaves, garlic, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and serrano pepper. Blend to a smooth and homogeneous consistency, about 20 seconds, stopping to scrape down the bowl halfway through. Season to taste with more salt as needed. Makes about 1 cup. (Store excess dressing in a lidded container in the refrigerator up to 1 week.)

CRUNCHY GREENS WITH CARROT-GINGER DRESSING



Crunchy Greens With Carrot-Ginger Dressing image

This recipe draws inspiration from the sunny-orange flavor of green salads with carrot-ginger dressing at Japanese American restaurants. The pulpy, aromatic dressing may be the star, but a salad is only as good as its lettuce. After washing and thoroughly spin-drying the greens in a salad spinner (alternatively, you can pat them dry in a clean kitchen towel), one way to maximize their crunch before adding the dressing is to refrigerate them, covered, for at least 30 minutes. Little Gem has a sweet, juicy sturdiness, but regular packaged mixed greens, baby spinach and chopped romaine hearts work, too.

Time 10m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small carrot, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt
2 to 4 heads Little Gem lettuce, leaves separated, or 1 romaine heart, chopped
1 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: In a food processor, purée the carrot, ginger, olive oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, onion powder, a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon cold water until as smooth as possible, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Dress the salad: Place the lettuce leaves in a large serving bowl. Add a couple of tablespoons of the dressing and toss, then add more as needed to evenly coat. The salad should be lightly dressed, not drowned; don't use every drop of dressing if you don't need to. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with more salt as desired. Top the salad with the mint leaves and serve immediately.
