Crisp Romaine And Tomato Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Add the olive oil, vinegar, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a glass jar, screw on the lid and shake vigorously to emulsify.
• Add the lettuce, chives and radishes to a large serving bowl. Add about half of the dressing and toss to combine. Add the Parmigiano-Reggiano and toss once again. Season with salt a pepper to taste. Serve extra dressing on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the tomatoes on a baking dish and drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil and season with some salt and pepper and transfer to the oven. Roast until the tomatoes start to burst, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once cool, transfer to a salad bowl and slightly smash up the tomatoes with a fork, add the minced red onion and the mustard and vinegar. In a slow steady steam, pour in the extra-virgin olive oil, to taste, while mixing with a fork. Add the romaine lettuce and toss to combine.

Steps:

Whisk together, heating over medium heat until emulsified, then turn off the heat.
• To serve, place the romaine on a platter and sprinkle with the bacon, crumbled blue cheese and dried cherries. Drizzle with the warm bacon fat dressing and season with salt and pepper.
