DRESSING
Source: Adapted from "ColLABorations: Recipes From Around the Corner and Around the World" by The Parents' Association of the Laboratory Schools at the University of Chicago [another super resource of which this recipe is a very tame example; copies still available <g>] Rinse greens under cold running water. Drain thoroughly. Tear into bite-size pieces.
To prepare dressing: Combine onion, peppers, and fresh herbs in large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Mix well. Dress salad immediately prior to serving.
Notes: The recipe also called for 2 T. fresh chives in the dressing, but I had none and did not miss them. Ditto 1 head of red leaf lettuce -- I like the stronger taste of the radicchio, so substituted extra radicchio for the red leaf lettuce. Also, unsalted sunflower seeds or pine nuts would probably be terrific in this.
