Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     salads and dressings

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
1/4 cup packed fresh herbs (a mixture of basil, parsley, thyme, rosemary and oregano; it's not necessary to use all of them)
About 1/4 cup peanut oil
2 shallots, peeled and sliced
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse sea salt or kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 handfuls young lettuces (a mixture of peppercress, arugula, frisée, mizuna, red oak or any other kinds you like)
1/4 cup fresh chervil and tarragon leaves

Steps:

  • Three days before, combine the vinegars with the herb mixture in a jar. Seal and let infuse in the refrigerator for three days.
  • Strain the herbs from the vinegar and pour the vinegar into a saucepan. Place over high heat and reduce by half. Fill another saucepan with 1/4 inch of peanut oil. Heat the oil to 170 degrees, then add the shallots. Remove from the heat and cool. Strain. Place the vinegar in a bowl, then gradually whisk in the shallot oil and then the olive oil until emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the lettuces and the chervil and tarragon. Sprinkle with about 3 tablespoons of the dressing and toss gently and thoroughly, until all of the leaves are thinly coated. Add a little more dressing if necessary, but the delicate leaves should not be weighed down with it. Season with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve.
