CREOLE CAESAR SALAD WITH CORN BREAD CROUTONS



Creole Caesar Salad With Corn Bread Croutons image

My love for okra began as a child and continues to border on just this side of insanity. I love okra. As a young boy, I would smuggle a brown bag full of fried okra into the movies as my better-than-popcorn snack. On Sunday nights, I was famous for making fried okra and creamed corn sandwiches with fresh slices of tomato and loads of Duke's mayonnaise. Years later, while studying in Italy, I realized that Italians also took leftover vegetables and made sandwiches. All you need are cold vegetables, bread, and mayo. The Caesar salad treatment makes this lighter than a sandwich, although if you want to give it more heft, you can add shrimp, chicken, or duck.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

For the salad:
2 cups Fried Okra
2 heads romaine lettuce, leaves separated
1 cup cooked fresh corn kernels, chilled
2½ cups cubed corn bread, toasted
½ cup sliced grape tomatoes
½ cup sliced seedless cucumber
¼ cup sliced red onion
Creole Caesar Dressing (recipe follows)
For the Creole Caesar dressing:
⅔ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tablespoons chopped onion
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
½ roasted red bell pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped celery
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • For the salad:
  • Place half the fried okra in a large bowl and add the romaine, corn, corn bread, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion. Add the dressing and toss until well coated.
  • Divide the salad among six serving plates and top evenly with the remaining okra. Serve immediately.
  • For the Creole Caesar dressing:
  • In a small saucepan, combine the oil, garlic, and onion. Cook over low heat until the garlic and onion are golden and tender, about 15 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the garlic and onion to a food processor; reserve the oil.
  • Add the vinegar, bell pepper, celery, sugar, cayenne, mayonnaise, Parmesan, and a pinch each of salt and black pepper to the food processor. Pulse until smooth. With the machine running, add the oil in a thin stream and process until emulsified. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

CREOLE CAESAR SALAD

This recipe is from a New Orleanian chef and caterer, Emile L. Stieffel, very slightly adapted. If you can get red leaf romaine, the salad is beautiful; if you can't, get another green head. The boston lettuce adds a nice texture difference. I highly recommend that you make your own seasoned croutons--specifically Crescent City Croutons, elsewhere on this site. Chef's Note: The fish sauce is a excellent way to get the traditional flavor of anchovies to the salad without actually having to use anchovies. There is only a hint of flavor when 1/2 tsp. is used.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h20m

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 head romaine lettuce
1 head red romaine lettuce
1 head boston lettuce
6 ounces extra virgin olive oil (Basil flavor if desired)
1/4 cup pickled garlic (Crushed then minced fine)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon creole mustard
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
2 eggs
1/4 cup freshly grated romano cheese
1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
crouton

Steps:

  • Wash the lettuce heads carefully by gently unfolding the leaves from the body of the lettuce and allowing cold water to flush away any dirt or sand from the stems. Turn the heads upside down and allow to drain.
  • Cut the lettuce widthwise into 1/2-inch wide strips. Place the lettuce strips in a large bowl; dry thoroughly with paper towels. Use 1/2 the oil and gently toss the lettuce until all of the lettuce is completely covered with oil.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the remaining oil, garlic, Creole mustard, lemon juice, black pepper, soy and fish sauces until a smooth emulsion is achieved (about 2 minutes). Crack the eggs and whisk them into the dressing thoroughly.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad, toss the lettuce to completely coat all of the leaves. Chill salad well but no longer than 2 hours. Add cheeses, toss gently, add croutons. Serve.
