SALAD WITH ANCHOVY-MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE



Salad With Anchovy-Mustard Vinaigrette image

Anchovies add a salty depth of flavor to this bright, garlicky salad dressing. Here it's tossed with radicchio and arugula, but it will work on any full-flavored salad greens. Try it on frisée, spinach or raw baby kale. If you want to make this in a blender, double the quantities so the dressing emulsifies properly. Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for up to three days.

4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, more to taste
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • In a large bowl, toss enough dressing with arugula and radicchio to lightly coat leaves. Serve immediately.

HEIRLOOM TOMATO SALAD



Heirloom Tomato Salad image

Multi-variety heirloom tomato salad with fresh thyme, goat cheese, and stone ground mustard vinaigrette.

Provided by JuliasKitchen

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 10m

Yield 1 platter, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs heirloom tomatoes, of various colors and sizes
1/4 cup fresh goat cheese
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 large shallot, minced
1 small garlic clove, minced
2 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/4 teaspoons stone ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon honey
1/4 cup sherry wine vinegar (you can also use red wine vinegar as a substitute for sherry vinegar)
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Start with the vinaigrette to give the flavors time to blend. In a small bowl, whisk together the shallots, garlic, both mustards, honey, and vinegar.
  • Once the ingredients are fully combined, slowly pour in the olive oil while continuously mixing the vinaigrette to emulsify.
  • Set aside the vinaigrette. Tip: You can store the vinaigrette in the refrigerator for up to 1 week; you won't need to use all of it for the recipe.
  • Slice the larger heirloom tomatoes and quarter or chop the remaining tomatoes to create various sizes and textures on the plate. Arrange the tomatoes on a platter. Tip: Never keep tomatoes in the refrigerator. Doing so will take away flavor and aroma from the tomato, and leave you with an inferior product. Instead, store tomatoes at room temperature.
  • Hand crumble the goat cheese and dot the tomatoes.
  • Strip the thyme leaves from the stems and sprinkle liberally over the platter.
  • Spoon a small amount of the vinaigrette over the platter and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the ripest, most flavorful tomatoes you can find. Look for tomatoes that are deep in color and have a slight give when you press them gently.
  • Use a variety of heirloom tomatoes to create a more complex and interesting flavor profile. Try using a mix of red, yellow, orange, and purple tomatoes.
  • Handle the tomatoes gently to avoid bruising them. Use a sharp knife to cut the tomatoes into even slices.
  • Make the anchovy vinaigrette ahead of time so that the flavors have a chance to meld. You can store the vinaigrette in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Serve the salad immediately after it is assembled. The tomatoes will start to release their juices and the salad will become watery if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

This heirloom tomato salad with anchovy vinaigrette is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for summer. The sweet and juicy tomatoes are complemented by the salty and savory anchovy vinaigrette. This salad is a great way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer produce.
