I like food. Both eating it as well as cooking it. I’m a far cry from professional in the kitchen, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying it. Dean Allen’s latest entry makes me realize I would love to be a guest at his table. Salads are nice. Eat more salads, people! Blockquoth the recipe:
When it’s salad time, assemble at the table. Theatrically toss the lettuce and the dressing once or twice while carrying on a conversation, and then leap up and lob the croutons in from across the room. Stand on a chair and grate Parmesan four feet above the bowl. Toss. Run around the table grinding pepper randomly into the air as you chant oh you lucky people oh you lucky people. Toss. Serve.
The store just closed, otherwise I’d go and buy myself some black olives, red onion and feta cheese and make a Greece salad (though I suppose “grease salad” is also an acceptable spelling). Salad, feta cheese, red onion, black olives, and some balsam vinegar and olive oil to top it off with. Mmmm.
