Watercress Dressing

Yield

Serves 6

Ingredients

1/2 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 bunch watercress, coarse stems removed, washed and thoroughly dried
1/2 clove garlic salt to taste

Instructions

This dressing must be made in an electric blender. Whirl it until thoroughly mixed and light. The specks of watercress will coat the lettuce and lend their flavor to it. Sliver a handful of blanched almonds into the salad. This makes enough dressing for 2 heads of Boston lettuce. Also good on endive.
