LITTLE GEM SALAD WITH GARLICKY ALMOND DRESSING

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.

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.

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

ALMOND-ORANGE TOSSED SALAD

Another highlight of my Easter menu is this pretty salad, with its slightly sweet homemade dressing and crispy sugar-toasted almonds. I've often taken the salad to potlucks because everyone enjoys it so much. -Lavonn Bormuth Westerville, Ohio

SUGARED TOASTED ALMOND SALAD TOPPING

This simple topping turns an average salad into something above and beyond! I pair these with my sweet sour salad dressing and they make an amazing salad! I like to make up a big batch of these and keep them on-hand in an airtight container to use as a salad topper. I like to toast my almonds to a nice medium-brown, they take on a bolder flavor and really mix well in any salad.

  • Add all ingredients to small blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, adding water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached. I typically add 3 tablespoons. Alternatively you could whisk in medium bowl, but using a blender or food processor is best.
  • Taste test the dressing to make sure you’re alright with the vinegar-sweetness ratio, adding more sweetener or more balsamic to taste.

  • Pour the vinegar into a large bowl with the salt and pepper. Beat with a small whisk until the salt has dissolved.
  • Gradually beat in the olive oil until the dressing is well blended. Taste for sharpness. If the dressing is too sharp, beat in the water a little at a time until it suits your taste. Set aside.
  • Dry roast the sliced almonds in a heavy frying pan until they have just started to take on a golden color and you can smell their delicious aroma. Take care not to over-toast them.
  • While the almonds are still warm, tip half of them into the dressing. This will give the mixture a toasty taste. Reserve the rest to sprinkle on the salad greens. That’s it! Try with Simple Steamed Asparagus or Steamed Green Beans.
