Host's note: this topic is continued from Salad (2011 - 2015).
I had a plain green salad yesterday at Gotham Bar & Grill in New York, with the most remarkable dressing. They swore up and down that it was all about the aged sherry vinegar; but, it was the *brightest* sherry vinegar I have ever encountered. I mean "bright" in a way that is just . . . not really a sherry quality. I don't know if that makes sense.
But now I'm on a mission. I spent mucho bucks t
This is the Beet Slaw with Pistachios and Raisins from Six Seasons and it's absolutely delicious! The recipe is available online at this link.
The beet slaw gets dressed, then served atop a layer of pistachio butter - one of the book's pantry recipes.
If you try this, DO NOT skip the raisins!!! Even if you are not a raisin lover, you should give them a try. Once they get that hour long garlic/vinegar bath, they add the perfect note to this salad.
