Bloody Mary Salad Recipes

BLOODY MARY SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the bloody mary mix, red wine vinegar, and sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves then chill until needed.
• Peel the onion then thinly slice to get onion rings. Slice the cucumbers into thin even slices. Half the tomatoes, then thinly slice.
• In a large bowl combine the onions, tomatoes, and cucumbers, then top with the dressing.
• Chill for at least 2 hours stirring occasionally to make sure all the mixture is exposed to the dressing. Unlike most salads, this one you want to get slightly soft.

BLOODY MARY TOMATO SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Grate the cheddar as finely as you can. Take 1 tablespoon of the grated cheddar and place it in a pile on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining cheddar, making sure the piles are 1 ½ to 2 inches apart.
• Bake the crisps for 5 to 6 minutes, or until they are melted and golden on the edges. Remove and let cool completely. Peel the crisp off the parchment or use a spatula to lift them up.
• Place the tomatoes in a bowl and season them with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well. Add in the olives. Drizzle on a few tablespoons of the dressing and toss. Taste and add more dressing as needed. Top with the celery leaves and the cheddar crisps or serve them on the side.
• This stays great in the fridge (minus the crisps, store those separatelfor a day or so!
• In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, shallot, garlic, horseradish, Worcestershire, honey, hot sauce, mustard and celery seeds. Stream in the olive oil while whisking constantly until the dressing emulsifies. I like to let the dressing sit for 15 minutes before using it.

BLOODY MARY SEAFOOD SALAD

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok, then turn up the heat and add the garlic and scallops. Stir-fry for 30 seconds to 1 min until the scallops are just cooked. Tip onto a plate. Heat the remaining oil and stir-fry the prawns for 1-2 mins over a high heat until they turn pink, then season with some black pepper. Tip onto the plate with the scallops. Allow the seafood to cool completely.
• To make the bloody mary sauce, mix the tomato juice with the oyster sauce (use 2 tbsp for a stronger flavour), light soy sauce, rice vinegar and lemon juice. Taste and adjust the flavour with more of the ingredients if you want an even stronger flavour.
• When the seafood is cool, divide it between four glasses or small bowls, keeping 4 prawns for garnish. Add the celery and avocado to each glass and pour over the tomato mixture. Leave to marinade for 10 mins, or cover and chill for up to 4 hrs. Garnish each glass with the reserved prawns and some coriander.

• Cook shallots and celery in olive oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add puréed tomatoes, sugar, salt, pepper, and celery seeds and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 25 minutes. Pour tomato mixture through a sieve lined with dampened cheesecloth into a clean 3-quart saucepan, pressing hard on solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard solids. Bring tomato broth just to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in Worcestershire sauce.
• While tomato broth comes to a boil, stir together lemon juice and vodka in a small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over vodka mixture. (Spoon vodka mixture over any powdered gelatin remaining on top.) Let stand until softened, about 5 minutes.
• Lightly oil a 1 1/2- to 2-quart nonreactive shallow baking pan (2 inches deep).
• Add gelatin mixture to hot tomato broth, stirring until gelatin is dissolved. Pour into baking pan and chill, uncovered, until firm, at least 6 hours.
• To unmold aspic, run a small sharp knife around edge, then dip baking pan into a larger pan of warm water, 15 to 20 seconds. Put a cutting board over baking pan, then carefully invert aspic onto board and cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
