• 1/2 cup Swiss cheese, cut in julienne strips
• 1/2 cup ham, cut in julienne strips (or turkey or shrimp)
• 1/4 cup green Spanish olives, pitted
• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1/8 cup white wine vinegar

How To Make 1905 Salad?

1. Prepare the salad: In a large bowl, combine the shredded iceberg lettuce, cut tomatoes, sliced celery, Swiss cheese, ham, and Spanish olives.
2. Make the dressing: In a separate bowl, mix the minced garlic, oregano, and Worcestershire sauce. Gradually add olive oil while whisking to form an emulsion.
3. Finish the dressing: Stir in the white wine vinegar and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Dress the salad: Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything well to coat.
5. Add Romano: Sprinkle grated Romano cheese over the salad and toss once more before serving.

Recipe Tips:

• Use Fresh Ingredients: Always choose fresh and high-quality ingredients. Fresh vegetables, herbs, and proteins can elevate the taste and texture of your dish significantly.
• Balance the Flavors: Pay attention to the balance between salty, sweet, acidic, and savory flavors. A pinch of salt or a splash of vinegar can make a big difference.
• Don’t Skip Emulsification: When making a salad dressing, gradually add oil to create a smooth emulsion. It helps the dressing coat the salad evenly, enhancing the taste.
• Rest Your Salad After Dressing: Let the salad sit for a few minutes after tossing with the dressing. This allows the flavors to meld together perfectly.
• Adjust Seasoning to Taste: Taste the dish before serving, and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper, or lemon juice if needed. Small tweaks can make a big impact.

How To Store Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: First, let the leftover 1905 Salad cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate it for up to 2 days to maintain freshness.
