Steps:
- Halve the potatoes, unpeeled, and cut them into 1-inch wedges. In a large roasting pan heat 1/3 cup of the oil in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 5 minutes, add the potatoes, tossing them to coat them with the oil, and roast them, stirring them every 10 minutes, for 30 minutes, or until they are tender. Let the potatoes cool in the pan. In a blender purée the garlic, the vinegar, the rosemary leaves, and salt to taste, with the motor running add the remaining 1/3 cup oil in a stream, and blend the dressing until it is emulsified.

SMOKED SALMON & WATERCRESS SALAD WITH RED ONION-CAPER VINAIGRETTE
Start with a salad of smoked salmon and watercress. Try to buy the commercial bagged watercress that already has been cleaned to speed things along, or you may substitute other mixed salad greens. (I like to make sure there are some bitter ones, such as radicchio and arugula, along with milder greens, such as butter lettuce or baby spinach.) Also, because this is such a simple salad, all the ingredients should be top-quality. So spring for the best smoked salmon you can find.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Scrub the beets with a vegetable brush and wrap each one in foil. Place on a cookie sheet to catch the juices and roast in the oven for about 50 minutes until tender.
- Unwrap the beets and place them in a medium bowl. Cut into 1-inch pieces right in the bowl, touching the beets minimally as they'll stain your fingers and everything else (which is why it's easiest to cut them right in the bowl instead of on a cutting board).
- Whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and chopped fresh oregano. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Pour half the vinaigrette over the beets and gently toss. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour and up to 24 hours.
- Swish red onion in a bowl of cold water and rinse to remove any bitterness. Add more water and a few cubes of ice. Refrigerate for an hour or so.
- Toss greens in remaining vinaigrette and divide between four separate places. Top with beets and add a coin of goat cheese. Sprinkle with red onion and top with a sprinkling of fresh ground pepper and a few extra bits of fresh oregano, if you have it.

Steps:
- SALAD: Toss iceberg lettuce, spinach, onion, mushroom slices, grated Swiss chees and bacon in large bowl.
- DRESSING: Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend well.
- Just before serving pour dressing over the salad and toss.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your salad. Choose ripe, in-season vegetables, and a good quality vinaigrette dressing.
- Slice the onions thinly: This will help them absorb the dressing and soften slightly. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the onions.
- Marinate the onions: Marinating the onions in the vinaigrette dressing for at least 30 minutes will help them to develop flavor and soften. You can marinate them for longer if you have time.
- Use a variety of lettuces: A mix of different lettuces will add texture and flavor to your salad. Butter lettuce, romaine lettuce, and arugula are all good choices.
- Add other vegetables: You can add other vegetables to your salad, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots, or radishes. Just be sure to slice them thinly so that they will absorb the dressing.
- Top with cheese or nuts: If you like, you can top your salad with cheese, nuts, or seeds. This will add extra flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Onion vinaigrette salad is a simple but delicious salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh vegetables, and it is also a healthy and refreshing meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and flavorful salad that everyone will enjoy.
