Time 16m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 cups loosely packed mixed greens: iceberg and romaine lettuces, mesclun, and radicchio (washed and dried in a salad spinner or with paper towels)
2 large tomatoes, cut into wedges
2 cucumbers, peeled and cut into thin slices
2 carrots, peeled and sliced thin
1 to 2 shallots, diced
4 ounces feta cheese, cubed
1 lime
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
1 tablespoon fresh chives
1 tablespoon fresh dill
1 clove garlic, peeled and quartered
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon xanthan gum
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • For the Salad:
  • In a large bowl, toss greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, carrots and shallots with enough dressing to coat. Sprinkle cubed feta cheese on top.
  • Microwave lime for about 30 seconds to release essential oils, and set aside to cool.
  • For the Dressing:
  • Turn on the blender and while it's running, add 1at a time through the feed tube, the parsley, chives, dill, and garlic, and blend together until a smooth paste has formed. At this point the lime should be cool enough to squeeze. With the power still on, squeeze the lime juice through the blender feed-tube, and then very slowly add the buttermilk and xanthan gum until the mixture thickens and can coat the back of a spoon. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside in refrigerator until needed. (When chilled, the dressing should resemble something like mayonnaise.)
