It's all about the blender this week! A charmingly retro dressing perfect for the Classic Chopped Salad of crisp romaine, radishes, scallions, tomatoes and cukes.
Throw all this in a blender and whir until smooth: 1 cup buttermilk, 1/2 cup mayo, 2 T. olive oil, 1 T. fresh lemon juice, 2 cloves chopped garlic, 2 T. chopped fresh herbs (parsley, dill, tarragon all good here), about 2 T. chopped chives (could sub scallions in a pinch) and salt and black pepper to taste. Cafe Drake recommends really hitting this with the black pepper. Feeling decadent? Or skinny today? Toss in after blending 1/4 cup crumbled bleu or feta cheeses.
