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.

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, quick, weeknight, salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the dressing will taste.
  • Adjust the flavors to your liking: If you like a sweeter dressing, add more honey or maple syrup. If you like a tangier dressing, add more vinegar or lemon juice.
  • Let the dressing rest: This allows the flavors to meld together and develop.
  • Use the dressing on a variety of salads: Ginger French dressing is a great choice for salads with leafy greens, roasted vegetables, or grilled meats.
  • Store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks: Be sure to shake the dressing well before using.

Conclusion:

Ginger French dressing is a delicious and versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a new salad dressing, give Ginger French dressing a try.
