Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Neuske's bacon slices until crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

  2. 2

    Chop the Lettuce and Tomatoes

    Wash and dry the petite crunch lettuce. Tear it into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl. Chop the petite heirloom tomatoes into halves or quarters and add to the bowl.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Tomato Essence

    In a small bowl, mix together the tomato paste, olive oil, fresh basil, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    Crumble the crispy bacon slices and sprinkle over the salad. Add the hook's original blue cheese in crumbles on top.

  2. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the buttermilk dill dressing over the salad, starting with half a cup and adjusting to taste.

  3. 6

    Add Tomato Essence

    Finally, spoon the tomato essence over the top of the salad for an extra burst of flavor.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Salad

    Toss the salad gently to combine all ingredients before serving. Enjoy fresh!
