- 1 clove garlic
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice or vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 1/2 quarts torn crisp greens (romaine, bibb, leaf, or head lettuce, raw spinach)
- 4 tomatoes, peeled and cut in wedges
- 8 radishes, sliced
- 1 pound shrimp, cooked, cleaned, and chilled
- 1 cup small blue-cheese crackers
Mash garlic and salt together with a fork on a piece of waxed paper or in a wooden bowl until garlic disintegrates and mixes with salt. Add to mayonnaise with lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Chill until ready to use.
At serving time, place crisp greens in a salad bowl. Arrange tomatoes, radishes, shrimp, and crackers over greens. Add chilled dressing and toss lightly until greens are well coated. Serve at once.
