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.

Categories     dinner, weekday, salads and dressings

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup olive oil
7 anchovy fillets, finely chopped
1 large head green garlic (outer layer, stalk and root end removed) or substitute 3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 ounces crusty day-old bread in 3/4-inch cubes (about 2 cups)
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 large eggs
2 large or 3 small heads romaine lettuce, separated into leaves and torn into pieces, if desired (about 10 cups)
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Make croutons: Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add half the anchovies and cook, stirring, until they melt into oil, about 2 minutes. Stir in half the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add bread cubes, salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toast, tossing frequently, until croutons are golden and crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Make dressing: In medium bowl, whisk together remaining garlic and anchovies, plus lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire and remaining pepper. Slowly whisk in remaining olive oil.
  • Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Lower eggs into pan. For nearly raw eggs cook for 90 seconds; for soft boiled, cook for 4 minutes. Rinse eggs under cold water until cool enough to handle.
  • Combine lettuce, cheese and croutons in a large bowl. Add vinaigrette and toss well. Crack eggs into salad, scooping out any whites clinging to shell and toss once more. Add salt to taste.

MUSTARD GREENS SALAD WITH ANCHOVY CROUTONS



Mustard Greens Salad with Anchovy Croutons image

Because mustard greens are on the cusp of chewy, it's a good idea to let the salad stand for a few minutes once you've tossed everything together. This will give the leaves a chance to soften.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 oil-packed anchovies, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 slices (1/4-inch-thick) rustic bread, each sliced into 3 or 4 strips
6 cups mustard greens, stems removed, torn into 2-inch pieces
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook anchovies and garlic until anchovies are broken up and garlic is pale golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Pour mixture into a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile, toast bread on a rimmed baking sheet until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add to bowl with anchovy oil, and toss to coat.
  • Add mustard greens, lemon juice, and remaining tablespoon oil to bowl, and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, grated, plus 1 unpeeled clove, smashed
1 small baguette, torn into medium pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 2 lemons
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 white anchovies, minced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 pounds lacinato kale, ends trimmed
1 pound red endive, halved lengthwise
1 pound escarole, halved lengthwise
1 cup sliced chives (about 1 1/2-inch pieces)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • In a small saucepan set on the grill, melt the butter with the clove of smashed garlic. Remove the garlic.
  • Place the torn baguette in a mixing bowl and pour the melted garlic butter over the top. Toss to coat the bread and season with salt and pepper. Put the croutons in a cast-iron pan and place on the grill. Cover the grill and bake until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In the meantime, in a mason jar, add the lemon juice, olive oil, grated garlic, anchovies, Dijon and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper and vigorously shake to combine.
  • Remove the croutons from the grill and set aside. Brush the kale leaves and the cut side of the endive and escarole with some of the lemon vinaigrette. Place on the grill, cut-side down, and char for about 2 minutes.
  • Remove from the grill, slice into bite-sized pieces and put in a large serving bowl. Add the croutons and chives and dress with the remainder of the vinaigrette. Add Parmesan and toss to combine. Serve.

CITRUS AND GREENS SALAD WITH WONTON CROUTONS



Citrus and Greens Salad with Wonton Croutons image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 navel orange
1 pink grapefruit
1 tablespoon Chinese hot mustard
1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons (40 grams) extra-virgin olive oil
5 ounces (140 grams) baby kale
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon toasted white sesame seeds
Fried Wonton Croutons, recipe follows
Neutral oil, for frying
3 ounces (84 grams) soft goat cheese
1/4 cup (7 grams) chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon (42 grams) honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • Grate a teaspoon of zest from the orange and set aside in a small bowl.
  • To make the citrus supremes: Using a paring knife, cut off 1/2-inch from both ends of the orange and grapefruit and stand them upright so they sit flat on the cutting board. Make downward cuts, following the contour of the fruit, to remove the entire pith and peel. Hold the orange in your hand over the bowl with the zest (to catch the juice) and carefully slice between the membranes to remove the segments. Squeeze the orange remnants to release the remaining juice. Place the orange supremes in a separate bowl and set aside. Repeat with the grapefruit, adding the juices to the zest bowl for a total of about 3 tablespoons juice. Set aside the orange and grapefruit supremes.
  • To make the salad dressing: Into the bowl with the reserved citrus juice and zest, add the mustard, vinegar, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds black pepper. Whisk in the olive oil.
  • Place the kale in a large serving bowl. Add the onions and drizzle with the dressing. Toss to coat. Season with salt if needed. Top with the citrus supremes, sesame seeds and Wontons. Drizzle with more dressing, as needed. Serve immediately.
  • Heat about 2 inches neutral oil in a large saucepan to 365 degrees F and fill a small bowl with water. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and set aside.
  • Combine the goat cheese, chives, honey, a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Mash with a spoon to combine.
  • To form the wontons: Lay out the wonton wrappers and add 1 teaspoon filling to the center of each. To seal, dip your finger in the water and wet the perimeter of the wrapper. With your thumb and forefinger, fold 2 opposite corners of the wrapper in half and then bring them together to meet in the middle. Pinch to seal. Repeat with the remaining 2 opposite corners to create a four-cornered star.
  • Add half of the wontons to the oil and fry, turning occasionally, until crisp and deep golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on the wire rack. Season with salt. Repeat with the second batch of wontons.

Tips:

  • Select tender mustard greens: Look for vibrant, dark green leaves with no signs of wilting or yellowing.
  • Prepare mustard greens properly: Thoroughly wash and dry the mustard greens to remove any dirt or grit. Remove the tough stems, as they can be bitter.
  • Don't overdress the salad: Mustard greens have a strong flavor, so use a light dressing to complement, not overpower, their taste.
  • Experiment with different toppings: Add crumbled bacon, toasted nuts, or grated hard cheese for extra flavor and texture.
  • Serve immediately: Mustard greens salad is best enjoyed fresh, as the leaves can wilt if left dressed for too long.

Conclusion:

Mustard greens are a delicious and nutritious leafy green that can be enjoyed in various salads. With their slightly bitter flavor and peppery aroma, they add a unique dimension to any salad. When preparing a mustard greens salad, choose tender leaves, wash and dry them thoroughly, and remove the tough stems. Use a light dressing to complement the greens' flavor, and consider adding additional toppings for extra flavor and texture. Serve the salad immediately to enjoy the freshest flavor and texture.
