""This is the best house salad being served in New Orleans. It is presented beautifully, with multi-color layers in a glass bowl. It is something like the classic Cobb salad, but without the chicken." An old article from Inside New Orleans Restaurant section."

ingredients

Salad
1 head romaine lettuce
2 bunches watercress
2 hard-boiled eggs (whites and yolks separated)
6 radishes
2 ounces Roquefort cheese
2 large tomatoes
4 slices crisp bacon
1 large ripe avocado
Sauce Lorenzo
1 raw egg yolk
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 cup vegetable oil
¹⁄₃ cup red wine vinegar
1 french shallot, chopped
2 tablespoons bottled chili sauce (next to the catsup at the market)
salt and pepper

directions

Chop all the above ingredients separately. (Do not use a food processor for the lettuce, as it bruises the greens and gives it a funny taste.)
Put each ingredient in a vertical layer in a glass bowl.
It's colorful and dramatic, so show the finished salad to your guests before tossing the salad with Sauce Lorenzo.
Lightly beat together the egg yolk and Dijon mustard.
Beating quickly, alternately add the oil and the wine vinegar in a steady stream to form an emulsion. Season with chopped shallots, chili sauce, salt and pepper.

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me. If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer. I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story. Sigh..
