Chiapparelli's House Salad

I have an old friend who's daughter used to date one of the Chiapparelli sons. She obtained this recipe and shared it. I've had it for over 30 years and we love it. There are other versions out there, but I believe this is the original.


1/2 teaspoon salt.
1 Clove garlic crushed.
1 hard boiled egg chopped very very fine.
1 teaspoon pepper.
1 teaspoon crushed oregano( I use dried).
Dash of sugar..
Juice from 1 wedge of lemon.
1/4 Cup olive oi.l
1/4 C Red Wine Vinegar.
1 fresh head of Lettuce.
1 medium sweet or vidalia onion sliced very thin.
3/4 Cup Parmesan cheese shredded.

In a bowl first 9 ingredients with a whisk. In a large salad bowl place lettuce that has been torn into bite size pieces and the onion. Top with the Parmesan cheese. Just before serving (family style) pour the dressing on and toss this salad well.
You can serve this as a prelude to your Italian meal, or serve it with a loaf of good crusty bread and a glass of red wine and you have a wonderful meal!!
