Categories     salads and dressings

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1/4 cup packed fresh herbs (a mixture of basil, parsley, thyme, rosemary and oregano; it's not necessary to use all of them)
About 1/4 cup peanut oil
2 shallots, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse sea salt or kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 handfuls young lettuces (a mixture of peppercress, arugula, frisée, mizuna, red oak or any other kinds you like)
1/4 cup fresh chervil and tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Three days before, combine the vinegars with the herb mixture in a jar. Seal and let infuse in the refrigerator for three days.
  • Strain the herbs from the vinegar and pour the vinegar into a saucepan. Place over high heat and reduce by half. Fill another saucepan with 1/4 inch of peanut oil. Heat the oil to 170 degrees, then add the shallots. Remove from the heat and cool. Strain. Place the vinegar in a bowl, then gradually whisk in the shallot oil and then the olive oil until emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the lettuces and the chervil and tarragon. Sprinkle with about 3 tablespoons of the dressing and toss gently and thoroughly, until all of the leaves are thinly coated. Add a little more dressing if necessary, but the delicate leaves should not be weighed down with it. Season with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve.

2 cups red-leaf lettuce, (about 1/3 head), leaves torn
3 cups romaine lettuce, (about 1/3 head), leaves torn
3 cups frise and chicory, (1 small head), leaves torn
1/3 cup oil-cured black olives, pitted and cut in half

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, young mixed greens. If you can't find mixed greens, you can use a combination of baby spinach, arugula, and romaine lettuce.
  • To make the herb vinegar dressing, use a variety of fresh herbs, such as basil, chives, parsley, and thyme. You can also add a touch of garlic or shallot for extra flavor.
  • If you don't have time to make the herb vinegar dressing, you can use a store-bought vinaigrette or balsamic dressing.
  • Toasted nuts, such as almonds, pecans, or walnuts, add a nice crunch to the salad.
  • Grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled feta cheese add a salty, savory flavor to the salad.
  • For a more substantial salad, you can add cooked chicken, fish, or tofu.
