Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 large garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, or to taste
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 to 2 tablespoons water
4 heads of romaine, the pale-green inner leaves washed, spun-dry, and torn into bite-size pieces (about 12 cups) and the outer leaves reserved for another use

Steps:

  • In a blender or small food processor blend the garlic paste, the mustard, the lime juice, the mayonnaise, and salt and pepper to taste until the mixture is smooth and with the motor running add the oil in a stream. Blend the mixture until it emulsified, add enough of the water to thin the vinaigrette to the desired consistency, and blend the vinaigrette until it is combined well. In a large bowl toss the romaine with the vinaigrette.

The dressing for this salad is too thick and heavy. It overpowers the other ingredients.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning.

I'm not a big fan of creamy dressings, but this one is really good. It's not too heavy and it has a nice tang to it.

I'm not usually a fan of romaine lettuce, but this salad changed my mind. The dressing was tangy and creamy, and the hearts of romaine were nice and crunchy.

This salad was a hit! The creamy lime vinaigrette was light and refreshing, and the hearts of romaine were crisp and flavorful. I added some grilled shrimp for extra protein, and it was perfect.
