How to Make

  • FOR THE DRESSING

  • Step 1: Cover the tomatoes with the hot water and let them sit for about 30 minutes to reconstitute.

  • Step 2: Fish the tomatoes out of the water (save the soaking water), chop them, and put them in a blender with the buttermilk. Whirl them around until the tomatoes are pureed. Add the oil, vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the soaking water, and salt and pepper to taste. Whirl to combine into a creamy dressing. Taste the dressing with a piece of lettuce, and adjust the salt and pepper. Pour it out into a jar. Makes about 3/4 cup.

  • FOR THE SALAD

  • Step 3: Pile the lettuces, radishes, and carrots in a salad bowl. Spoon in about 1/3 cup of the dressing, toss well, and serve. The extra dressing will keep in the refrigerator for about a week.
