ICEBERG WEDGE BLUE CHEESE BACON & TOMATO SALAD



Iceberg Wedge Blue Cheese Bacon & Tomato Salad image

I first tried a salad like this in a restaurant. I think my homemade version is much better. Hat's off to Luby for the outstanding recipe for Blue Cheese Dressing which is the only one I will eat now. I copied the recipe verbatim, and included all steps in making the dressing straight from Luby's recipe, #55514. This is my favorite salad in the summertime, reminds me of a BLT without the bread.

ST. ANSELM'S ICEBERG WEDGE SALAD



St. Anselm's Iceberg Wedge Salad image

This wedge salad, adorned with blue cheese and warm bacon vinaigrette, is served at the restaurant St. Anselm in Brooklyn. The revelatory vinaigrette is actually a roux made with bacon fat, then thinned with cider vinegar and water, a hit of sugar and another of Dijon mustard. It is superb, and it would not be out of place drizzled over grilled asparagus, accompanied by chopped hard-boiled eggs.

Categories     lunch, quick, salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and cracked black pepper, to taste
1 large head of iceberg lettuce, cut and cored into 4 wedges
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • In a large skillet set over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Pour off all but 1/4 cup of the bacon fat in the skillet.
  • Lower the heat under the skillet, then stir in the flour and cook, stirring often with a spoon, until the flour is lightly browned, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water to the mixture, along with the vinegar, sugar and mustard, and allow to come to a simmer. Whisk the mixture frequently until the dressing is thick enough to resemble gravy and coat the back of a spoon, approximately 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
  • Put the iceberg wedges on plates. Drizzle with the warm dressing, and sprinkle with the bacon pieces, blue cheese and parsley. Serve immediately.

Chopped Iceberg Wedge Salad (The Mermaid Oyster Bar) image

This is Zach Braff's (of Scrubs) favorite salad from The Mermaid Oyster Bar in New York City. Recipe was in Food Network Magazine June 2010. I think some grilled shrimp would be DIVINE on top of this salad!!! I suggest letting the dressing rest for an hour or two to get maximum flavor.
