Yummy! The dressing is wonderful!! I especially loved the tarragon flavor. Adding brie cheese to the salad was an added, decadent bonus. Just a delicious salad. Merci! Made for ZWT8.

A few carefully arranged nicoise olives sprinkled on each serving brought this all together. Used a good quality brie and fresh greens from our CSA box. Annie's brand Worcestershire sauce was ideal. (Fresh chives from our garden.) I love boston lettuce but don't cook with it much. That'll have to change. Made for Veg Tag/May.

What a delicious salad dressing this makes! The chives and tarragon were actually very subtle, adding just the right amount of herby flavor. I will definitely be making this again!

Too hot to cook here so I made a couple of salads. I used a bag of mixed baby lettuce/spinach leaves for this to make it even easier. Also used roquefort instead of brie and fleur de sel. Deliciously cooling.
