After a quick Eureka moment, research online and thinking ‘duh’ I made this creamy homemade Thousand Island Dressing with four ingredients in about four minutes. (Although the Kraft light version is available on for a mere 10 euros with shipping). Maybe writing my thesis brings student memories to the frontal lobe?! Unfortunately, Thousand Island Dressing is not available in France. Just looking at iceberg lettuce I get transformed back in time to fun easy-going student days, stopping into Tumulty’s for a burger and that famous house salad. I have been back to Tumulty’s Pub a few times since and this salad is still on the menu. (Ah yes!) One of my favorite dishes at Tumulty’s Pub when I was a student at Rutgers was the ‘steak house salad’ which is a big wedge of iceberg lettuce topped with Thousand Island Dressing. Writing and thinking hard really builds up an appetite, I have been craving crisp light salads and American food. If all goes well I might even have it finished and sent out within a week, but I have been saying this in the last three weeks, so uhm, bets all out on when it will ‘really’ be done. I am at the last stages of thesis writing (oh la la-yeah!). I will post the recipe and details next week! I won’t tell you anything else about it now, just that it is another easy and healthy sauce that adds a ton of flavor to foods. Last week I brought you ‘ Salsa Jurvert‘, a Catalan speciality sauce of smashed parsley, garlic, sunflower and basil. Today I made Sofregit, a typical Catalan sauce that is added to dishes at the last stage of cooking. Memories of a Thousand Island Dressing Special Sauce Topping
