I don't care for salad, but I would have eaten that. Not only did it look so good (like Lish said, you eat with your eyes first), Lish's excitement when she makes and tries anything makes the dish that much more appealing.
This salad dressing has completely changed this pregnant ladies life 😍😍😍😍 I followed all the tips and made just a plain salad (no blue cheese for me yet until baby is here) but wow this is amazing. Thank you SO MUCH!!
When I was learning French at university almost two decades ago now, this dressing was the first culinary secret our professor shared with us. Although it's hardly a secret to the French, as I've seen used in restaurants and family kitchens throughout the country. Very authentic and just delicious.
made this salad and it's perfect. the attention to detail is what makes people say "why is this salad so good? Can I have some more?" it's perfect. I added thinly sliced purple onion.
Lish, I’m so grateful for your video! I’m not a chef, I just cook a lot and have an appreciation for tasty and healthy dishes. I made this dressing using avocado oil and promise it taste like I was in a five star restaurant! Hands down the best vinaigrette I’ve ever made! Now I have to have a dinner party so I can spread the love!
Honestly this was super easy and simple, if you skip the more "fancy' stuff like the champagne and the blue cheese and the different kinds of greens it's just lettuce, oil, vinegar, salt and some onion, nothing that you won't find in any semi competent pantry. It's not about the ingredients, it's the technique that made this salad a bit more interesting and less sad than a normal home made salad, I'm definitely going to try this!
Watching Chef Lish compose this dish made this non-salad person love greens. The combination of crunch, creamy/briny blue cheese, and acidity of the dressing was perfection! I am happily eating this salad a few times a week. I love serving it along with Buckwheat Galettes for a quick weeknight dinner. Satisfying and comes together quickly!
Fascinating! I never knew I was supposed to rinse my shallots. I've used shallots so many times without the rinse. The next time I use them my food will be better. Thanks!
Not to be weird but can we please have more salad videos with Lish (yes im completely serious, i genuinely loved this, it was delightful and lovely, looks amazing, and i need it because i eat salad 1-2 times every single day)?!!
@@cwg73160 of course not, and i wouldn't; i was asking for more salad recipes, as i eat salad twice a day and learning more great recipes like this one in the video would be lovely and helpful to enhance the ones i make.

@@cwg73160 There's nothing wrong with the comment in the parentheses being longer than the main question/comment; this is just a casual forum and not formal.

This is a blue print for a million salads! Greens, cheese and a salty crunchy topping. Personally I'd add some fruit or some veggies. My favorite simple salad dressing is a bit of fresh grated garlic, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, oil, and salt and pepper. Depending on the season I'll change it up. Add shallots or chives. Make it a bit sweet. Add fresh minced herbs. Add spicy Aleppo pepper or cayenne. Substitute vinegar or a different citrus juice. The possibilities are endless. Once you start making your own dressing you'll never go back to bottled.
To me the secret to a great salad comes from making sure you have 3 elements: something fatty, something crunchy and some source of protein. Doesn't have to be 3 individual ingredients, you can just toss some almonds if you want and call it a day, but when all 3 factors combine they elevate salads
Lish Steiling ROCKS! Thanks for taking the time. Now, I'll feel much more fulfilled when i buy the proper greens and whatnot. Looking forward to trying that dressing. THANK YOU Lish! 🌱🍅
This is lovely. But I must say as a customer I would be irritated by such large pieces of lettuce. I’m a firm believer in everything in a salad being bite-sized.
Oh no! I respectfully disagree! If you tear them into bite size pieces, it affects the flavor. Keep them whole until you cut into them. Flavor is better.
This looks delicious and I especially like that you put cheese and nuts in the center as well as on the top. Too many salads are not made that way and by the time you get down into the salad, none of the extra tasty things are left.
I would have liked tips about how restaurants wash and store greens. The salads I make at home are always too wet, but drying greens thoroughly can cause bruising.
Jeannemuller7625: Correct. I wash each leaf in running room temp water after they’ve been soaking in a huge bowl of water with a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar first.
Chef Lish gave me a clear explanation on how to make a restaurant quality mixed greens salad by giving all the tips that is necessary to succeed. I believe this will be a valuable asset to me because I am currently going to be working as a pantry cook at the DoubleTree by Hilton hotel Sacramento.
I have to ask if you washed the greens, because it doesn't look like you did. You took the leaves right off of the bunch and in the salad without rinsing them at all. Isn't washing salad greens necessary?
I love champagne vinegar as well, or white balsamic in a pinch; great recipe! 😋 ❤ Fun fact, that’s pronounced on deev, the endive pronounced in dive is a curly green usually found in mixed salads. I just learned that and had to share lol 😂
I know people are saying they want tips on washing the greens, but she wasn't really "washing" the onion here so much as soaking it to remove the strong taste and acidity. It's a good trick to know if you aren't a fan of raw onions!
Epicurious just crushing it lately with their videos. It feels like there was a big turnaround with the 3 Levels thing, and now they're just hitting homeruns constantly.
I think the four levels videos let them basically screen test a lot of diff people over time to see who hits with the audience, and the swap ingredients videos let them see who might be able to carry a whole video, so they’ve basically turned the content stream into an extremely efficient production chain.
LOVED this....you are spot on about the shallots. I had never rinsed nor dried and this is HUGE! I added a dollop of dijon and I used a stick blender..... and it emulsified for days. I also added a bit of sugar; a balance to the vinegars I used. EXCELLENT for the third day in a row....
I hate bleu cheese. Maybe some shaved parmesan instead. Although I like the toasted almonds I prefer nice homemade croutons. How about some black pepper?
My problem with such salads is that when I see it I think "oh no, this will be such a hassle to actually eat" And then when it's done you didn't even have a proper meal yet but your plate and your surroundings are covered in dressing. I prefer salads that sit on the fork nicely and don't require pushing the greens into mouth by force.
@@NextToToddliness That's a pretty lame take. This was the first thing I thought of while watching the video. Those pieces of greens are too big, and there's no practical reason for it. It's purely for looks.
Chefs always say a salad should be eaten from a plate. I find it more fun to corral that lettuce in a large bowl, like a pasta bowl. Maybe I’m a slob 😋
The tip #1 for making Restaurant quality salad: Leave the salad leaves as large as possible, so it's a pain in the a** to eat it without looking super weird.
I love salads! I would probably add a chopped hard-boiled egg. And maybe some avocado. I'm definitely going to plant different Greens in my garden this season. Delicious 😋
An excellent presentation, Thanks Chef. Love the inclusion of shallots; not used enough in American cooking. But: What does this salad taste of? Salt. Gobs in the dressing, more on the greens then we use multi layers of Danish Blue? What happened to letting the flavour of the greens shine?
Great salad, reminds me of an old Jamie Oliver video. I think it's also important to mention that you need to dry lettuce after washing! Many people put wet lettuce in the bowl and then complain about watery salad…
Chef Lish is a great explainer, demonstrator and has a wonderful upbeat personality. Always a joy to watch her videos.
I second this.
I third this.
I fourth this.
I fifth this
Agree!
I don't care for salad, but I would have eaten that. Not only did it look so good (like Lish said, you eat with your eyes first), Lish's excitement when she makes and tries anything makes the dish that much more appealing.
Salad looks good as salad to eat or as pile of something?
I made it and it tastes even better than it looks.

Fabulous salad recipe. And Chef Lish has the most beautiful knife technique. I could watch an entire video of her just dicing onions and shallots.
my therapist told me to watch more of these videos. relaxing.
She's so awesome I'd watch her make a PB&J

@@AnnapolisGirly I don’t think it affects flavor if you serve immediately as I always do. If I have to cut a salad, I’ll never order it again.
I totally agree.
How, exactly? @@AnnapolisGirly
Don’t eat a wedge salad or you’ll have a heart attack😂

That'd be great!
Have you tried a salad spinner? You should be able to get most of the water out without the leaves getting too smooshed
Yes! Agree
I love her energy. She loves what she does and you can tell. 💗💗
Beautiful salad. Did you wash the lettuce? It was all so pretty and dry. How do you wash whole heads of lettuce? Thanks
Jeannemuller7625: Correct. I wash each leaf in running room temp water after they’ve been soaking in a huge bowl of water with a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar first.

Would love to see instructions on how Lish washes and prepares her greens to make a salad.
Yes, I was hoping we'd see that.
Um, in plenty of clean water, then drain them in a sieve or use a salad spinner.
Chef Lish knows her salads, great video!
Made this. Very good. Need more dressing recipes from this Chef. Too many dressings are boring and I want to eat more salad.
Love Chef Lish! Such a calming voice and beautiful presence 💚
😂 “They play nicely with all the flavors.” I need more shallot energy! Tune into your inner shallot and embrace the shallot energy!

I love her passion for food. 💞💝💖💗
Muy simpatica! So well explained, to the point, fast paced - Chef Steiling is wonderful! I made the salad, came out perfect. Thank you!!
Absolutely awesome - thank you!
love this!!! i wish you could do more, please. more salads. you inspired me with this salad and the dressing.
Yum yum. Got to prepare this now!!!!! Beautiful. Thank you.
Adequately salting salad makes such a difference! I like a 3:1 oil: vinegar ratio but other than that this looks amazing
How do you wash and dry the greens properly? I use a salad spinner but I find that the greens are still wet even after a couple of spins.
Don't crowd the spinner. If you're using a lot of different salad leaves, wash and spin them separately.
I love this woman and her cooking.
More like nachos than a salad. :) Serious question though...why use six different types of greens? Is it purely for aesthetics?
I just LOVE everything about this video! Especially the intro 🥬😁
Thank u!!
So similar to the salad that we make at home, one can add some fruits too in this, like grapes or green apple. It gives a lovely burst of sweetness
Thank you! ❤ I love your presentation, your love of food is so appreciated! That having a simple scrumptious meal doesn’t have to be expensive. ❤
Thank you for sharing this great video!
멋진 영상 공유 감사드리며 응원합니다. 멋진 금요일 보내시고 늘 행복하세요.

Any tips on taking a salad in your lunch? I either have a bunch of tiny containers of all the toppings or a soggy salad, unless I make a kale salad.
I absolutely love Lish’s vibes!!!!!! Hope to see more videos of her in the future!!!!!!!!!!!
You are awesome. I hadn't thought about creating actual layers. Although I add many items, it's usually a horizontal salad. Thanks a bunch!!!

Absolutely Delightful Video! We enjoyed her Happy and Entertaining Video on RUclips, making Restaurant-style Salads at home !🙂
Putting the dressing at the bottom
4:33 tossing by hand
4:40 seasoning the greens
Everything they do looks de Lish! 😊
Honest question: Why no Dijon?
I need to use mixed salad greens more, thanks for a nice recipe! Looks delish.
Great demonstration! Do you need to wash the greens before use? Do you dry them after washing to get the nice crisp, non soggy greens?

Same here.. and I'd probably go for some hot smoked salmon too to make it more substantial

Crumbled bacon would be great on this. I live on salads.
