Amaretto Spinach Salad
This salad using amaretto sounds intriguing to me.
Steps
Wash spinach.
Remove large stems and tear into bite-size pieces.
Store in plastic bags lined with paper towels in refrigerator until ready to use.
Place bacon in a large skillet.
Cook over moderate heat , stirring occasionally , until bacon is crisp and all fat is rendered.
Remove bacon , reserve 1 / 8 cup bacon fat , discard the rest.
Return bacon fat to skillet and add oil , garlic , vinegar , lemon juice , worcestershire sauce , mustard , amaretto , salt and pepper.
Simmer until blended.
When ready to serve , place spinach , mushrooms , onion and reserved bacon in large salad bowl.
If you like a wilted salad , pour the dressing over very hot.
If not , let cool a bit before serving.
Toss well.
