Romaine With Lemon Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Cut off the brown and white tips of the romaine hearts then peel away the outer leaves; use just the ones that look like they'd make good serving cups. Chop up the remaining lettuce and set out in serving bowls along with all the other salad ingredients.
• Make the dressing by combing all ingredients in a sealable container and shaking. The kids can do that.
• Let kids decide what they want in their salad cups and how much dressing they'd like.

Steps:

• Whisk together lemon zest and juice, garlic, and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange romaine wedges on a platter. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with dressing, sprinkle with chives, and serve, topped with chive blossoms.

Steps:

• Combine the mayonnaise, lemon zest (grated yellow part of lemon) and lemon juice. To get the juice out of a lemon, heat it up in microwave for 10 seconds on high. Cut the lemon across in half. Squeeze the lemon halves while holding them upright over the dressing bowl so that the seeds stay with the lemon halves, not in the dressing! Add pepper to the dressing bowl, too. Whisk the dressing and pour in the extra-virgin olive oil while you whisk. If you pour in a slow, steady stream, 3 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil will pour out in a count to the number six. Once the oil is combined with the acid (the lemon juice) and the mayonnaise, you can switch utensils and stir in the cheese and a pinch of salt with a spoon or rubber spatula.
• Chop up the lettuce into 2-inch pieces. Place the lettuce in a salad bowl and top with the dressing when you are ready to serve dinner.

Steps:

• In a blender purée garlic and anchovies with lemon juice. With motor running add oil in a stream until dressing is emulsified and season with salt and pepper.
• In a bowl toss romaine with dressing, 1/4 cup Parmesan curls, and salt and pepper to taste. Divide salad between 2 plates and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan curls.

Steps:

• Prepare the romaine hearts: Cut off the bottoms, and remove a few of the outer leaves from each head. Gently separate the pale inner leaves and refresh in a deep basin of cold water. Drain leaves well, then spin dry, wrap in kitchen towels and refrigerate.
• Make the dressing: In a small bowl, stir together the lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, garlic and anchovy. Whisk in the olive oil, and season well with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning; dressing should be rather tart.
• Put the leaves in a large salad bowl. Sprinkle lightly with salt, pour the dressing over the lettuce and gently coat the leaves, tossing with your hands. Using a peeler, shave large curls of Parmesan over the salad.

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste and whisk in oil in a stream until dressing is emulsified. Add romaine and toss to combine well.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Very slowly whisk in the oil. Place the lettuce in a large salad bowl and toss with the dressing.
