Meal House: Salmon Cobb Salad

Recipe by The Kitchen at Billings Forge 

The Kitchen’s Salmon Cobb Salad

Dressing

Serves 6

• ¾ cup of (1/4 olive oil and 2/4 Canola Oil
• 2 tbs. red wine vinegar
• 2 tbs. lemon juice
• 2 tbs. Water
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tsp. granulated sugar
• ½ tsp. salt
• ¼ tsp. pepper

Instructions

1. Mince the garlic, sprinkle with a little salt and by angling the knife, work the garlic and salt together against the cutting board to form a paste. Place the garlic paste, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a bowl and whisk together. Add either the lemon juice or vinegar and whisk again.
2. Begin adding the oil, a few drops at a time, and whisk until completely incorporated before adding any more. The process takes a long time. As the dressing begins to emulsify, you can add the oil a little faster.
3. When you’ve added ½ of the oil, add another tbsp of vinegar or lemon juice. Continue slowly adding ½ of the remaining oil, waiting until completely incorporated before adding more. Then, add the remaining vinegar or lemon juice. Finish-up by adding the last of the oil in a thin stream while whisking and then add the remaining ingredients.
4. Refrigerate any leftover dressing. Make about 1 cup with a serving size of approximately 3 tablespoons.
