Bibb Salad With Basil Green Goddess Dressing image

Green goddess dressing was invented in the 1920's at San Francisco's Palace Hotel as a tribute to William Archer's hit play, The Green Goddess. It gets it's bright green color from lots of fresh green herbs. This dressing was originally made with tarragon, but has been updated with basil, which actually has more flavor! Delicious on green salad, but also great served with vegetables like asparagus and broccoli. Adapted from the Barefoot Contessa at Home cookbook.

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup good quality mayonnaise (Hellman's is good)
1 cup chopped scallion, white and green parts (6-7 scallions)

2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
2 teaspoons anchovy paste (optional-I don't use)
2 teaspoons kosher salt

3 heads bibb lettuce
2 -3 tomatoes

Steps:

  • Plaace the mayonnaise, scallions, basil, lemon juice, garlic, anchovy paste(if using), salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Add sour cream and process just until blended. If you are not using immediately, chill the dressing until ready to serve.

This salad is really good, but it's a bit too heavy for me. I think I'll try a lighter dressing next time.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some grilled chicken or shrimp next time.
