That’s French for Leaf Lettuce Salad With Cream & Green Onions, Baby! This one originates from Quebec as far as I know. I have never been to Quebec but I have an Aunt from there and she taught me to make this wonder salad. It’s really simple and delicious, and it goes with almost anything. All you need is.. A leafy lettuce of your choosing Green onions or chives (CHOPPED) Then you just slowly add in little heavy cream. Don’t drown it, just enough to get every leaf nice and coated. I won’t give you exact measurements because I cook purely by intuition. Add in some salt and black pepper to taste and toss it around to stir up all the flavours. The more you toss it around the more the flavours from the onions will create a beautiful harmony with the cream pepper and salt. It’s odd? Perhaps, but it’s delightful.

Cooking STRESSES ME OUT so I will have to check out the chicken soup recipe you shared, Ms. Gia. I could take or leave her cutesy turns of phrase but I love the way Molly Baz explains things and this Caesar salad recipe is great. I swap out the canola oil for olive oil and I like to double it up to make one giant salad. PRODUCE 1 garlic clove 1 lemon 4 romaine hearts DAIRY 2 large eggs 2 ounces grated Parmesan cheese (about ½ cup), plus more for serving PANTRY ½ crusty baguette (about 6 ounces) 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Kosher salt Coarsely ground black pepper 4 oil-packed anchovy fillets 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard ½ cup canola or vegetable oil 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce Serves 4 1. Make the croutons: * Preheat the oven to 350°F. Tear ½ of a baguette into irregular 1-inch pieces; you should end up with about 3 cups of torn bread. Toss on a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and a few good cranks of black pepper until weil coated. Bake until deeply golden brown and crisp, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool. 2. Make the dressing: * Separate the yolks and whites of 2 large eggs. Place the yolks in a large bowl (where you'll build your dressing) and reserve the whites for another use. * Finely grate 1 garlic clove and the zest of about half of a lemon into the large bowl. Squeeze in the juice of half of the lemon. * Finely chop 4 anchovies, then mash them to a paste, using the side of a chef's knife until homogeneous; add to the large bowl. * Add 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard and whisk everything to combine. Place a damp kitchen towel underneath the bowl to stabilize it so it doesn't slip 'n' slide all over the place as you whisk in the oil. * Starting with a very thin stream at first, whisking constantly as you go, incorporate ½ cup of canola oil into the yolk mixture until it is thick, creamy, and pale yellow. * Whisk in ž teaspoon kosher salt, ž teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese (Ÿ cup). * Taste the dressing on a leaf of romaine-it should be salty, cheesy, and lemony. * Make any adjustments necessary until it tastes so good that you'd be happy eating a bowl of it alone with a side of crouts. 3. Prep the lettuce: * Tear the leaves of 4 romaine hearts into 2-inch pieces and transfer them to the bowl of dressing. * Squeeze the juice of half of the lemon over the romaine, season with salt, and toss the leaves to coat, avoiding incorporating any of the dressing beneath just yet. 4. Serve: * Add the croutons and gently toss the lettuce with your hands until well coated. Add 1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese (Ÿ cup) and toss again. Divide among plates and top with more grated Parmesan and black pepper.

this is a recipe from the heart, measurements are emotional and raw splash of wine vinegar (i use a white wine vinaigrette but this also works with rice or watevs) pinch of salt whisk that to dissolve salt add more olive oil than vinegar whisk her hard until she emulsifies heres where i give a little pinky taste test for balance of acid and smoothness (if too acidic add a touch more oil and salt, if not enough zing add more vinegar) now crack some pepper!!! perfect side salad for any meal (maybe?), trust me cause im writing this while eating this exact dressing rn :P

I used to really hate salads. there was never any balance to them, too much lettuce or too much dressing to be enjoyable. But now I don’t. I think salads are a really unique way of cooking bc u kind of just mix a bunch of things together, but if they go together and there’s balance, you can achieve a cohesive flavor that tastes really really good. Yesterday I made one with cucumber, chickpeas, olives, mixed greens, granola, olive oil, and balsamic, and it one of the best things I’ve ever made.

I’d spend hours playing this game as a kid and the influence of its strange atmosphere has stuck with me all my life. Immersed in an empty black void, this world of clay The Neverhood at times felt unnerving and downright creepy as much as it evoked a sense of absolute wonderment. As you traverse a barren and sparsely inhabited landscape full of winding platforms and unorthodox structures the whimsy of this world quickly grows on you. The game is a point and click puzzle adventure that forces you to think outside the box a little. It doesn’t layout a clear path or purpose for you but invites you to uncover hidden truths as you search for meaning along the way. The whole game is a work of art. An epic of creation moulded from 3 tonnes of clay and countless hours of man power crafting a 3D world by hand and bringing it to life through stop motion animation. A kind of dedication you frankly just don’t see much these days. The game was conceptualized and created by Doug TenNapel who was a designer for the 1994 classic Earthworm Jim with Shiny Entertainment. Dissatisfied with Shiny Entertainment’s operations at the time, TenNepel branched off to create his own company The Neverhood, Inc. and alongside Mark Lorenzen and many other artists who also worked on the creation of the Eathworm Jim began to realize his vision for The Neverhood.  The game itself wouldn’t be complete without the incredible and bizarre and comedic soundtrack that accompanies it.  Scored by Terry Scott Taylor Imaginarium: Songs from the Neverhood is a mind and genre melting collection of absurdity that will serve you up some “Potatoes, Tomatoes, Gravy, and Peas”, have you “Playing Pool in Outer Space” and “Sound Effects Record #32” in case you weren’t familiar with the sound of a freeway from twenty miles away or the sounds of a man watching television with the volume at zero. This is another gem of an album I’d highly recommend painting too if you feel like getting weird with it.  I cannot stress the level of impact this game has had on me creatively and would not only recommend it highly to anyone with an interest in video games but to those with an appreciation for the art of claymation and animation in general.
