HAROLD'S FLORENTINE SALAD DRESSING



Harold's Florentine Salad Dressing image

This recipe made it's developer (a European-trained chef who died a few years back), a VERY rich man. I used to eat regularly at his fine restaurant in Portsmouth, Ohio, and I never ever missed having a green salad with this incredible dressing. Peoples' tastes are different, but, to me, this is the finest salad dressing I have ever tasted anywhere. I have already halved the recipe and reduced the salt content by about 1/3. You'll need a Kitchen-aide mixer for this one and don't shortcut the blending time (I have to do it in 2 batches) or you'll be disappointed. I'm posting the recipe here so that I can always go back to it if I happen to misplace my own copy. I hope that you enjoy this rare and unique Italian salad dressing as much as I do.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 3/4 gallons

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 quarts lemon juice, bottled
2 tablespoons garlic powder (make sure it's fresh!)
3 cups onions, ground up (I use the food processor)
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
3 cups sugar
1/2 cup salt
1 gallon canola oil

Steps:

  • Split all ingredients in half (have them ready at hand) and make half a batch at a time.
  • Pour the lemon juice and garlic powder in the Kitchen-aide mixing bowl and, with the wire whip attachement, blend on setting #2 until the powder is completely dissolved, (about 5 minutes).
  • Add the onions (and any juice), cayenne pepper, sugar, and salt. Blend on setting #2 for at least 20 minutes. Gradually add the oil as it is blending and continue to mix for the full 20 minutes (30 is better).
  • In a large container, mix the two batches of dressing together. Stir continually as you bottle the dressing in smaller containers.
  • Refrigerate until use -- always serve very cold on chilled salads.

HEALTH SALAD

This is a favorite item of mine to order in NYC Jewish delis. So when I decided to make it at home for a BBQ, the first recipe I pulled off of the internet was right on the money. This is "kind of" like a good coleslaw but without the mayo and with a few items added. Use a 4-sided box grater to shred all of the veggies.

2 carrots, shredded
1 green pepper, sliced paper thin in small strips
2 kirby cucumbers, peeled and sliced paper thin

1/2 cup canola oil or 1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup white vinegar or 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon oregano

Steps:

  • Shred or slice (and I do mean paper thin) all vegetables.

  • Refrigerate immediately after mixing veggies and dressing.
