"There's a little restaurant on the shores of Shawano Lake in Wisconsin that serves German, Austrian and Hungarian food. When you order salad, you get a plate with some cole slaw, some lettuce, some potato salad and a big bottle of "dressing" that looks like and has the consistency of water. This is something like that - a light accompaniment to often-times rich food!"

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Place the vinegar, sugar and garlic in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring almost to a boil, until sugar is dissolved. Pour liquid into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the water, salt and olive oil. Whisk together.

Step 3

When ready to serve, drop the greens in the "water" bowl, and turn leaves quickly, until immersed in liquid. Let sit for 2 minutes. Lift greens from bowl, shaking lightly, and divide greens among 4 salad bowls. Pour a little of the remaining water from the mixing bowl over each salad. Serve immediately.
