I cut this out of our local newspaper sometime in the 80s. The recipe intro stated this salad was a regular menu item at the restaurant in Neiman Marcus department store. Slightly altered recipe.

Ingredients:

1 head romaine lettuce, chopped

1 cup cooked chicken, diced

1/2 cup celery, thinly sliced

1/2 cup carrot, peeled and grated

1 cup red cabbage, coarsely shredded

1 cup enoki mushrooms, chopped coarsely

1 cup snow peas

2 tablespoons peanut butter

2 tablespoons hot water

2 tablespoons shoyu

1 tablespoon white vinegar, plus

1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar

1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

1/2 tablespoon regular sesame oil

1 tablespoon dry white wine

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

3 tablespoons green onions, sliced

salt, to tate

pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Divide the salad ingredients onto 4 salad plates.
2. Blend the peanut butter with the hot water until smooth.
3. Slowly add the other ingredients; blending well.
4. If salad dressing is too thick, thin with a little bit of hot water, about 1 tablespoon at a time; to desired consistency.
5. Serve the salad dressing on the side.
