I don't care for salad, but I would have eaten that. Not only did it look so good (like Lish said, you eat with your eyes first), Lish's excitement when she makes and tries anything makes the dish that much more appealing.

@carlajones2169 11 месяцев назад

Lish, I’m so grateful for your video! I’m not a chef, I just cook a lot and have an appreciation for tasty and healthy dishes. I made this dressing using avocado oil and promise it taste like I was in a five star restaurant! Hands down the best vinaigrette I’ve ever made! Now I have to have a dinner party so I can spread the love!

@AngryWindmill Год назад

Honestly this was super easy and simple, if you skip the more "fancy' stuff like the champagne and the blue cheese and the different kinds of greens it's just lettuce, oil, vinegar, salt and some onion, nothing that you won't find in any semi competent pantry. It's not about the ingredients, it's the technique that made this salad a bit more interesting and less sad than a normal home made salad, I'm definitely going to try this!

@mistylee717 Год назад

This is lovely. But I must say as a customer I would be irritated by such large pieces of lettuce. I’m a firm believer in everything in a salad being bite-sized.

@AnnapolisGirly 8 месяцев назад

Oh no! I respectfully disagree! If you tear them into bite size pieces, it affects the flavor. Keep them whole until you cut into them. Flavor is better.

@mistylee717 8 месяцев назад

I know people are saying they want tips on washing the greens, but she wasn't really "washing" the onion here so much as soaking it to remove the strong taste and acidity. It's a good trick to know if you aren't a fan of raw onions!

How do you wash and dry the greens properly? I use a salad spinner but I find that the greens are still wet even after a couple of spins.

@MTMF.london 11 месяцев назад

Don't crowd the spinner. If you're using a lot of different salad leaves, wash and spin them separately.

@lisaroy551 Год назад

LOVED this....you are spot on about the shallots. I had never rinsed nor dried and this is HUGE! I added a dollop of dijon and I used a stick blender..... and it emulsified for days. I also added a bit of sugar; a balance to the vinegars I used. EXCELLENT for the third day in a row....

@doko2nd Год назад

That vinaigrette was awesome for a potato salad. However, I never understood the French way of making salad. For me one cannot make a good salad if one does not make the vegetables release juices to mix with the oil.

after a while you get a feeling for that. Most people who eyeball think/cook professionell are pretty close to it.

My problem with such salads is that when I see it I think "oh no, this will be such a hassle to actually eat" And then when it's done you didn't even have a proper meal yet but your plate and your surroundings are covered in dressing.
