Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. SALAD.
  2. In salad bowl, tear lettuce and add green or red onion and seasonings (for some reason, it seems to work better with the onion mixed in with salad greens, not as one of the rings ). Toss and smooth greens so top is uniformly level.
  3. FORMAL ATTIRE.
  4. Proceed to dress up the salad by making a 1 ring (1-1/2 for wider bowls) of grated carrot around edge of bowl thick enough to cover the greens.
  5. Then make rings inside this of corn, then green pepper, then beets or tomatoes then mushroom slices piled in the center circle. If using beets and tomatoes both, make it tomatoes then a ring of mushrooms then a mound of shredded beets in center.
  6. Make sure rings are thick enough to cover all the naked greens. You can use any vegetables of your choice to make the rings, such as radishes, olives or water chestnuts, but I prefer the varying colors and blend of flavors of the above.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to place it on buffet or dinner table.
  8. SECRET DRESSING.
  9. Make Secret Dressing by placing cut pieces of ginger root and vinegar in a blender and blend until smooth. Press through a mesh strainer over a bowl, squeezing out pulp to get more liquid into bowl. Pour liquid back into rinsed-out blender.
  10. Add honey, garlic and soy sauce. Blend well. Slowly add oil while blender is on low to mix.
  11. Pour into a jar with cover, shake and refrigerate. When ready to serve salad, shake jar and pour into a cruet for guests to pour their own.
  12. PRESENTATION.
  13. Put salad on buffet or dinner table and after everyone oohs and aahs, toss well and serve with secret dressing in a cruet for them to pour on desired amount.
