SICHUAN CELERY AND TOFU SALAD



Sichuan Celery and Tofu Salad image

This otherwise simple salad, adapted from a dish at Szechuan Gourmet in Manhattan, may require a trip to a Chinese market for Szechuan peppercorns and pressed tofu. And you'll need to make your own chili oil! But here's the thing. The effort, which really isn't much more than difficult shopping, produces an elegant dish that is worth whatever shoe leather or mileage you'll expend getting the ingredients together. It is astonishingly good. And we'll even allow one substitution. You can use regular celery instead of the Chinese version!

ROASTED AND RAW BRUSSELS SPROUTS SALAD



Roasted and Raw Brussels Sprouts Salad image

If you like a good kale salad, or any type of crunchy salad, then you will love this one, which combines shredded raw brussels sprouts with roasted brussels sprouts leaves. As with any sturdy greens, the raw sprouts benefit from marinating in the dressing, which uses fresh lemon juice and salt as tenderizers. While the uncooked greens can be prepared in advance, you'll want to add the warm ingredients just before serving, so you can enjoy the contrast of the crisp leaves and toasted almonds with the tangy shredded sprouts.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound or 2 (9-ounce) containers brussels sprouts
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 small shallot, halved
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
Black pepper
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 ounces Pecorino Sardo, or other sharp sheep's milk cheese, shaved with a vegetable peeler (about 1 scant cup)
1/3 cup whole raw almonds, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Trim the sprouts, cutting a good 1/4-inch off the bottom. Pull off the large leaves (you should have about 2 cups of them); set aside. Shred the remaining sprouts thinly, using a food processor fitted with the slicing blade, or use a knife to halve them through the core, then thinly slice them. You should have 5 to 6 cups.
  • Toss the shredded sprouts with the lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and massage with your hands to tenderize them. Set aside.
  • Finely mince half the shallot and mix with the sherry vinegar, mustard, honey, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. While stirring, slowly pour in 4 tablespoons oil, then drizzle the dressing onto the sprouts, mixing thoroughly. Toss in the cheese and place in a serving bowl. (Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours, if not serving right away.)
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Thinly slice the other half of the shallot, and on a small baking sheet, combine the shallot with the reserved sprout leaves, almonds, remaining 1 tablespoon oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss to coat, then roast, tossing once or twice until the sprouts begin to crisp and brown, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Place the hot ingredients on top of the salad (do not toss) and serve immediately, with more cracked pepper on top.
