MOLDED VEGETABLE SALAD



Molded Vegetable Salad image

I FOUND this recipe years ago in an old cookbook. By using different colored gelatins, it blends in well with special holiday dinners. Of course, I use lime for our St. Patrick's Day celebration. Whatever the holiday, this salad is a big hit and there's seldom any leftover. -Pauline Albert, Catasauqua, Pennsylvania

ASPARAGUS SALAD, ITALIAN-STYLE



Asparagus Salad, Italian-Style image

Here, raw asparagus is simply dressed with lemon juice, olive oil and Parmesan shavings.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy, quick, salads and dressings, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 to 2 pounds asparagus, not too skinny (fat is fine)
2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste
Lemon juice to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
Freshly shaved Parmesan to taste

Steps:

  • Cut off the woodsy bottoms of the asparagus spears; discard. Cut off the flower ends and set aside.
  • Use a vegetable peeler to remove the dark green outer skin of each spear; you should get three or four ribbons from each one. Set aside. Cut the remaining stalks crosswise into 1/4-inch rounds.
  • Combine ribbons, sliced rounds and tips in a large bowl. Drizzle asparagus with oil, then sprinkle with lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, then top with Parmesan.

CHILLED ASPARAGUS SALAD



Chilled Asparagus Salad image

I like to use a kitchen scissor to cut only the very bottom from the stalk; breaking it off causes more of the bottom to go to waste, which is otherwise perfectly edible. With the smaller, thinner "pencil" asparagus, the stalks are too thin to peel and you need that protective layer so the asparagus keep their shape during cooking. For larger asparagus, where the skin is tougher, I do peel the stalk but leave the tip and an inch or so below the tip, unpeeled. The top is tender enough that it can be cooked as is.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 quarts water
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
32 stalks small to medium-size green asparagus, washed and ends trimmed
2 lemons, juiced
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons smooth Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • I like asparagus al dente, slightly crunchy. Bring the water to a boil in a large pot over medium heat. Add salt until it tastes like mild seawater. How will you know? Take a little water with a spoon and taste it, then add the sugar.
  • Prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl, large enough to hold the asparagus, with cold water. Add some ice cubes. Plunge the asparagus into the ice bath before cooking. This will help to bring any limp stalks back to life. Remove from the ice bath, plunge them into the boiling water and allow them to cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water, transferring them immediately to the same ice bath. Allow them to sit in the ice bath for a few minutes, swirling them gently in the water to assure they are all cooling quickly in the cold water.
  • The most important step for this dish? Drying the stalks once they are removed from the ice bath. Taking care that no water gets into the final salad is the best way to assure that the maximum flavor will be enjoyed! Transfer the asparagus to a large plate or platter lined with a kitchen towel and refrigerate.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey and mustard. Stir to blend. Whisk in the olive oil in an even, steady stream. When all of the oil has been integrated, taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
  • When ready to serve, remove the kitchen towel from the asparagus and simply toss the asparagus in the dressing to coat them completely. Arrange the stalks on plates and serve.

Categories     salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 to 2 pounds asparagus, not too skinny
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons rice vinegar, or to taste
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Cut off the woodsy bottoms of the asparagus spears; discard. Cut off the flower ends and set aside.

  • Toast the sesame seeds in a small dry skillet over medium-heat, shaking occasionally until they color and begin to pop, but remove from heat before they burn. Combine the seeds with sesame oil, rice vinegar, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Taste and adjust as necessary. Spoon over the asparagus and toss gently.

CLEMENTINE-POMEGRANATE JELLO SALAD



Clementine-Pomegranate Jello Salad image

A gelatin salad, or Jell-O mold, may seem retro, but when you make one from scratch, substituting fresh juice and fruit in place of artificial flavoring and color, it can be spectacular, making a great showpiece for a dinner party or buffet. This particular combination of tart clementine and sweet pomegranate is quite refreshing for a very light dessert, but it may also be served as a fruit salad.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     custards and puddings, dessert

Time 4h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

About 2 1/2 tablespoons powdered gelatin (3 1/4-ounce packets)
1/2 cup cold water
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups clementine juice, freshly squeezed from about 24 small clementines or tangerines
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds, plus more for garnish
2 cups clementine segments (from about 4 or 5 clementines), plus more for garnish
Mint leaves, for garnish
8 ounces crème fraîche or softly whipped unsweetened cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Put the gelatin in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Leave to soften and swell for about 5 minutes.
  • Add boiling water and stir mixture until smooth and free of lumps. (If necessary, set saucepan over low heat for a few minutes until completely dissolved.) Stir in sugar and salt to dissolve. Whisk gelatin mixture thoroughly into clementine juice.
  • Rinse a 6-cup bowl or mold with cold water and pour in mixture. Add pomegranate seeds and clementine segments. The pomegranate seeds will fall to the bottom, and the clementine segments will rise to the surface. (If you wish to have the fruit suspended in the gelatin, chill mixture until half-set, then stir in fruit.)
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably 8 to 12 hours. You may prepare and chill the gelatin up to 2 days before serving.
  • To unmold, set bowl or mold in a container of warm water for 5 minutes, and use a table knife to loosen edges. Remove bowl from water, place a platter over bowl, invert and unmold. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • To serve, remove plastic wrap. Garnish with mint leaves and reserved pomegranate seeds and clementine segments. If desired, top each serving with a dollop of crème fraîche.
