Blue Horse House Salad
This winning combination of crabmeat, beets and lettuce was popular at the
St. Paul restaurant.
Vinaigrette:
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1/4 tsp. dry mustard
6 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. wine vinegar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Dash of Worcestershire sauce
Salad:
1/2 c. canned beets, cut in thin julienne strips
2 heads Romaine lettuce
1 c. crabmeat picked from cooked and chilled Dungeness crab legs (or 1 c. canned
crabmeat)
1 hard-cooked egg
To make vinaigrette: In a bowl, combine the salt, pepper, dry mustard, olive
oil, wine vinegar, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce, beating with a wire
whisk until emulsified.
To make the salad: Add the julienne beet strips to the vinaigrette and allow to
soak for a few minutes. Then lift beets out of the dressing and set aside.
Meanwhile, remove the tender inner leaves of Romaine (the hearts), leaving them
whole. (Save remaining lettuce for another use.) Toss the Romaine hearts with
the dressing mixture. Lift Romaine from dressing and place on 4 plates.
Add the crab to the dressing remaining in the bowl, stir briefly, then place
crab and dressing on Romaine and sprinkle the beets over the top. Grate
hard-cooked egg over top of salads.
Serves 4.
