Last night for NYE dinner we wanted to re-create a salad we had in Savannah at Circa. It is a classic French dish, but we added a slight twist to our's. First thing we did was toss 2 cups of frisee lettuce (sometimes they don't have it at Publix, we got it at Whole Foods) in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Next we put them on a hot grill and grilled them for about 1 minute, until slightly charred and wilted. Meanwhile we made a salad dressing of parmesan cheese, mustard, mayo, white balsamic vineagar, lemon juice, and olive oil. We also cooked lardons (or little strips of bacon) until just crispy. Once the lettuce was cooked we assembled and enjoyed. We may be biased, but both Ryan and I agreed that our salad was the better!
