Cuban Tossed Salad
- 2 ripe tomatoes
- 1 white onion
- 1 head iceberg lettuce
- 6 -8 radishes, sliced thin
- 12 cup olive oil
- 14 cup white vinegar
- 14 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 garlic cloves, mashed
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 14 teaspoon ground pepper
- Cut the tomatoes in wedges, cut the onion in thin slices.
- Break up the lettuce by hand.
- Toss all ingredients together with the radishes.
- Place all the vegetables in the refrigerator to chill.
- Use a mortar and pestle to mash the garlic with the salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, add the olive oil, vinegar and lemon juice to the crushed garlic.
- Whisk together thoroughly.
- You can also use a blender to emulsify the oil and liquids.
- Just before serving: Gradually add the dressing, a little at a time, while you toss the salad with a couple of large salad forks.
- Add just enough dressing to cover the salad -- more or less to your own taste.
