VIA CAROTA'S INSALATA VERDE



Via Carota's Insalata Verde image

At Via Carota, the charming West Village restaurant run by the partners Jody Williams and Rita Sodi, the menu description for insalata verde does little to give away any details about what makes it so unbelievably, mouth-smackingly perfect. A visual inspection of the dish reveals only leaves of endive, butter lettuce, frisée and watercress all piled as high as gravity will allow, topped by a drizzle of dressing studded generously with shallots and mustard seeds. In truth, all the secrets of this otherworldly salad lay in the graceful, unlikely application of a flavorless one: water. First, the five carefully chosen types of lettuce are all triple-washed to yield what Williams called "a super happy salad." Next, the minced shallots are given a quick rinse under cold water - instead of a long maceration in vinegar - to keep them shalloty and savory and prevent them from becoming too acidic, which could overwhelm the delicate lettuces. And finally, and perhaps most surprising, Williams adds a spoonful of warm water to the vinaigrette. "We add warm water to make it more palatable," she explained. "Pure vinegar is just too strong - it assaults the taste buds. We want a salad dressing so savory and delicious that you can eat spoonfuls of it. We want you to be able to drink it!" This might just become your go-to vinaigrette. Spoon it liberally over everything from boiled asparagus to farro salad to steak and fish and roast chicken. It's so good that you might even be tempted to pour it into a glass and top it off with sparkling water.

Time 15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 heads butter lettuce, such as Boston or bibb
1 romaine heart
1 large Belgian endive
1 bunch watercress
1/2 small head frisée
1 large shallot, minced
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon aged sherry vinegar, plus additional, as needed
1 tablespoon warm water
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons honey (optional)
2 sprigs thyme, washed and stripped
1 large clove garlic, finely grated
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Wash the greens: Fill a sink or large basin with tepid water. Remove any wilted or damaged leaves from the butter lettuce, romaine and endive. Trim each head at the root to release whole leaves. Leave butter-lettuce leaves whole, but halve large leaves of romaine and endive on the bias, then drop into water. Trim and discard any roots and long stems off watercress, and drop remaining leaves and tender stems into water. Trim and discard dark green outer leaves and tops from frisée until only light green and white parts remain. Trim at the root to release leaves, and drop into water. Swirl greens in water, then drain. Wash twice more in cool, then cold, water, then transfer to a salad spinner to dry. Gently wrap in clean dish towels, and set aside.
  • Place the shallot in a fine-mesh strainer, and quickly rinse with cold water. Allow to drain, then place in a medium bowl, and add vinegar and warm water. Allow to sit for 2 minutes, then whisk in oil, mustards, honey (if using), thyme, garlic and a large pinch of salt. Taste, and adjust salt and vinegar as needed.
  • To serve, gently pile a generous handful of greens into a serving bowl, then sprinkle with salt, pepper and a generous drizzle of dressing. Continue with another handful of salad and more seasoning and dressing, repeating until you have a glorious, gravity-defying mound of salad. Top with a final drizzle of dressing, and serve immediately.
  • Wrap remaining greens in an airtight container or plastic bag and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 3 days.

INSALATA DI CAVALO ROSSO E VERDE (RED AND GREEN CABBAGE SALAD)



Insalata Di Cavalo Rosso E Verde (Red and Green Cabbage Salad) image

Another delicious Italian recipe from La Cucina Italiana magazine. I did not include the resting time - about 30 minutes. This is meant to be served at room temperature. Enjoy!

Provided by Nif_H

Categories     Vegetable

Time 31m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups red cabbage, thinly sliced
2 cups green cabbage, thinly sliced
2/3 cup white wine vinegar
3 tablespoons shallots, minced
2 tablespoons sugar
4 whole black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine red and green cabbage.
  • In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, shallot, sugar, peppercorns and bay leaf; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil until reduced by half, about 6 minutes.
  • Strain vinegar mixture over cabbage; discard solids. Toss cabbage to coat. Let stand, uncovered, at room temperature, tossing occasionally, for 30 minutes. Add oil and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp cabbage. Look for heads that are heavy for their size and have tightly packed leaves.
  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the salad wilt and absorb the dressing more easily.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with the slicing blade to shred the cabbage.
  • Be sure to rinse the cabbage well before using it to remove any dirt or debris.
  • The salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, the dressing should be added just before serving.
  • Serve the salad as a side dish or a light lunch or dinner.

Conclusion:

This red and green cabbage salad is a healthy and refreshing dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy salad recipe, give this one a try!
