Crunchy Green Salad with Slivers of Fresh Celery, Pecans, Parmesan and Lemon Vinaigrette
In San Francisco there is a stunning restaurant, Zuni Café, where the food tasted so good we chose to eat there two days in a row. This entrée is inspired by a similar entrée salad I had there. The original was made with escarole, a crunchy-leafed green that is similar to our iceberg lettuce, but that’s hard to find in New Zealand. Here I have substituted cos lettuce to provide that fresh, crisp texture, and dressed the salad with a distinctively lemony vinaigrette.
...Cucumber, Pineapple and Bean Sprout Salad
The burst of sweet pineapple combined with the tangy dressing and hint of herbs really makes this simple salad a hit.
