Peppery Greens With Meyer Lemon Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Soak the shallot in cold water for five minutes. Drain and dry on a doubled-over paper towel. Then combine with the salt and lemon juice in a small bowl. Let sit for 15 minutes. Add the pepper, then whisk in the olive oil and buttermilk or yogurt.

Steps:

• Cook seeds in 1 tablespoon oil in a small heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until puffed and beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels and reserve oil. Season seeds with salt and pepper.
• Whisk together vinegar, honey, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Add remaining 1/3 cup olive oil and reserved oil from skillet in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
• Divide greens and cheese among salad plates. Cut off 2 opposite sides of each pear (reserve for another use), leaving a 1/2-inch-thick lengthwise center slice with stem and core. Arrange a pear slice on each plate and drizzle dressing over salads. Sprinkle with seeds.

Steps:

• Combine olive oil, Meyer lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, Parmesan cheese, garlic, zest, salt, and pepper in a small blender cup. Blend until dressing is smooth, 30 to 45 seconds.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, and sugar. Slowly add oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly; generously season with salt and pepper. Add greens; toss until leaves are evenly coated in dressing. Serve.

Steps:

• To prepare the dressing: Place the olive oil and lemon juice in a small glass jar with a lid and season with salt and pepper. Secure the lid and shake until thoroughly combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• To prepare the salad: Remove the green, feathery stalks from the fennel bulb, thinly slice the white part of the fennel bulb on a Japanese mandolin or with a knife. The thinner you cut the fennel the better. Place the sliced fennel in a medium mixing bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the prepared dressing. Let sit for 30 minutes (this will soften the fennel slices a bit). Add the orange segments to the bowl and toss gently.
• Place the arugula in a medium mixing bowl and toss with remaining dressing.
• Divide the arugula among 4 plates and top with some of the fennel mixture. Season with a twist of freshly ground black pepper.

Steps:

• Whisk together the lemon zest and juice, vinegar, mayonnaise, mustard, and honey in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the oil until emulsified. The dressing can be made 1 day in advance and stored in a container with a tight-fitting lid in the refrigerator.
