Cobb Salad With French Dressing
6 servings
1/2 head iceberg lettuce
1 small bunch chicory
1/2 head romaine lettuce
1/2 bunch watercress
2 medium tomatoes, blanched & peeled
1 1/2 cups cooked turkey breast
1 large avocado
3 eggs, hard-cooked
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
6 strips crisp bacon, crumbled
2 tablespoons chopped chives
BROWN DERBY FRENCH DRESSING
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon salt, or more to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 cup red-wine vinegar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon English mustard
1/2 cup olive oil
11/2 cups vegetable oil
For the salad: Chop the iceberg lettuce, chicory, romaine lettuce and watercress very fine. Reserve some watercress for garnish and arrange the rest of the greens in a salad bowl.
Cut the tomatoes in half, remove seeds, and dice fine. Dice the turkey, avocado and eggs. Arrange the ingredients, as well as the blue cheese and bacon crumbles, in straight lines across the greens. Arrange the chives diagonally across those lines.
Present the salad at the table, then toss with enough dressing to moisten and place on chilled plates with a watercress garnish.
For the dressing: In a jar with a lid, place all of the dressing ingredients except the oils and shake vigorously to combine. Add olive oil and vegetable oil. Shake well again before mixing with salad.
