Alice Waters: Salad Days
I find salads photographically challenging, which is a bit of a problem when "cooking" through the Alice Waters oeuvre. I retract my somewhat snide remarks about the stupidity of writing a recipe for green salad. Her green salads are lively and fantastically delicious -- better than my usual winging-it salads. Today for lunch I tried Waters' Hearts of Romaine with Creamy Dressing (SF). It's just whole leaves of lettuce dressed with a vinaigrette of lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, and cream. Really excellent. Took roughly four minutes to make and two minutes to eat, and it was worth the price of the book. It would be even nicer with croutons, but they're not on my diet.
Be sure to vote in the new poll Isabel set up today. You'll find it on the upper right side of the page.
