Buttermilk herb dressing
Dressings

A few years ago, I came across Grace Parisi's simple buttermilk salad dressing recipe in Food and Wine magazine. I was looking for an alternative to our standard vinaigrettes, so I adapted her version using what we had on hand (we've always got creme fraiche in the fridge; sour cream, not so much), and it was pretty much love at first taste. I most often make a version studded with chunks of creamy blue cheese, but I decided to go for a somewhat lighter spin to dress a beautiful head of red-tinged butterhead lettuce I brought home from the farmers' market yesterday. The herbs added a fresh bite, and the cool tang of the buttermilk was really welcome on a hot and sticky evening. <br />
