Truffle Dressing Herb Salad Recipes

HERB AND GARLIC DRESSING

Steps:

• Whisk vegetable oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, parsley, garlic, basil, celery seed, marjoram, and black pepper together in a bowl.

LEAFY HERB SALAD

Steps:

• Combine greens in a large bowl, along with parsley, cilantro and chives. Add mint or dill leaves, if you have them on hand. (It's fine if you don't, but the more the merrier.)
• Zest lemon over the greens, then halve and squeeze lemon juice all over everything. Season with flaky salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, and finish with a good drizzle of olive oil. The salad should be lightly oiled, and heavy on the flaky salt and lemon juice.

TRUFFLE DRESSING/ HERB SALAD

Steps:

• Prepare the vinaigrette by combining the olive oil, truffle oil, white wine vinegar, and sugar.
• Season with salt and pepper and reserve.
• Clean and thoroughly dry the mesclun mix.
• Combine the mesclun, radicchio, parsley, and dill and toss thoroughly.
• Just before serving, whisk the vinaigrette vigorously and season with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
• Toss the salad with the vinaigrette and arrange on plates.
• Serve immediately.

LAYERED PEA SALAD WITH CREAMY HERB DRESSING

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, add mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice and zest, and herbs. Pulse until smooth. Refrigerate until you are ready to use.
• Layer your salad in a trifle dish. Start with the beets on the bottom in an even layer. Next add a layer of each lettuce, celery, blue cheese, and peas. Spread the dressing over the top of the salad and season with pepper to taste. Top with bacon. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

HERB SALAD

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine the vinegar, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until well mixed. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the dressing is smooth and creamy. Set aside.
• In a large bowl combine the herbs, arugula, and fennel. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss the salad with enough dressing to coat. Sprinkle with edible flowers and serve.

SALAD WITH HERB-DIJON DRESSING

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, shallot, Dijon mustard, basil, tarragon, and thyme in small bowl. Gradually whisk in oil. Season dressing with salt and pepper.
• Cook green beans and asparagus in medium pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes; drain. Cut vegetables into 1/2-inch pieces; place in large bowl. Add lettuces, tomatoes and sliced basil leaves. Toss salad with enough dressing to coat.

MIXED HERB SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, oil, onion and seasoning until blended. Serve with salad greens.

CREAMY FRESH HERB SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Add cream to food blender. Add all other ingredients. Pulse until desired consistency. Refrigerate at least 8 hours. It tastes so much better after 24 hours, or so.

SUMMERY MUSHROOM & TRUFFLED HERB SALAD

Steps:

• Tip the vinegar into a shallow pan of boiling water, poach the eggs, then set aside in a bowl of iced water. Heat half the oil in a frying pan, fry the bread until golden on each side, then rub with the whole garlic clove.
• Reheat the pan until really hot, add the rest of the oil, throw in the mushrooms, then fry for 2-3 mins. Add the chopped garlic, broad beans and lemon juice, then set aside. Reheat the eggs briefly in the cooking water, then toss most of the herbs through the mushrooms.
• To serve, put a slice of toast on each plate, spoon over mushrooms and top with an egg. Drizzle with truffle oil, scatter with the rest of the herbs, then finish with black pepper.
