"To make a good salad is to be a brilliant diplomat - the problem is entirely
the same in both cases. To know how much oil to mix in with one's vinegar.
"

La Belle Cuisine

 


Cobb Salad is one of our top faves! :) It's a classic!
"Many culinary masterpieces are born out of random
consequences. Such was the case with the Cobb Salad.
According to lore, in 1937 Bobb Cobb, owner of Los
Angeles's famed Brown Derby, got the midnight munchies.
[He] rifled through the restaurant's fridge, where he found
the makings for a great snack. He tossed together lettuce,
avocado, hard boiled eggs, tomatoes, chives, cheese, and
French dressing, then chopped it all up with bacon, which,
as we all know, makes everything better. The Cobb Salad
was added to the menu the next day.
According to food writer Arthur Schwartz, the restaurant
served more than 4 million servings of the dish before
closing its doors."
