AMISH COLE SLAW



Amish Cole Slaw image

Found posted on allrecipes.com by Christina J. I've been told this is the closest copycat recipe for Primanti Bro's cole slaw. Fingers crossed. I plan on making it today for a BBQ. Cooking time includes minimum refrigeration time. It was recommended that slaw be refrigerated overnight and served with a slotted spoon to drain excess dressing.

SALMON SALAD NIçOISE



Salmon Salad Niçoise image

There are a lot of steps in this salad, but it is worth every one, in my book! This is not a side, it's a main dish for 2. Salmon is subbed for traditional tuna here. Green beans, potatoes, and some normal salad items are all combined with the salmon to make a beautiful, satisfying plate. Bonus, there is no added sugar in the light and lovely vinaigrette.

Categories     Salmon Salad

Time 1h

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
½ clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ pound small red potatoes, cubed
½ (10 ounce) bag haricot verts or tender young green beans
½ medium green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
7 leaves Bibb lettuce
8 pitted Kalamata olives, halved lengthwise
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
salt to taste
5 ounces cooked salmon, flaked
1 large hard-boiled egg

Steps:

  • Combine sherry vinegar, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice in a small bowl; stir briskly until vinaigrette is well combined.
  • Add olive oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking briskly after each addition. Season with salt and pepper and whisk until well combined; set aside.
  • Bring a pan of lightly salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook for 10 minutes, making sure the water level is above the potatoes. Add green beans and boil until beans are bright-green and tender crisp, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Sieve out green beans and place in an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and place in a large bowl.
  • Test potatoes for doneness by slightly piercing a potato with a sharp knife. If done, the knife should slip in with only a slight resistance. Drain potatoes, cool slightly, slice in half, and add to the bowl. Add bell pepper and drizzle vinaigrette over salad. Toss until well combined.
  • Line a serving plate with lettuce leaves and arrange potatoes, green beans, and pepper strips on top. Evenly place olive halves around the salad.
  • Lightly toss the sliced cherry tomatoes with olive oil and salt, and place around the plate.
  • Place salmon flakes on top of salad. Slice egg in half, and place one half of the egg on each side of the plate. Serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cabbage and carrots for the best flavor and texture. Shred them finely using a food processor or mandoline for even results.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to your coleslaw. Some popular additions include bell pepper, celery, broccoli, and radishes.
  • Use a creamy dressing for a classic coleslaw. Mayonnaise, sour cream, and yogurt are all good options. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice for a bit of tang.
  • For a lighter dressing, try a vinaigrette. Olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard are a good starting point. You can also add herbs, spices, and honey to taste.
  • Season your coleslaw to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add a pinch of sugar to balance the flavors.
  • Let your coleslaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the dressing to thicken.
