Crunchy Asian salad with toasted almonds, sesame seeds, bacon, and chow mein noodles.
Ingredients:
  • 3 ounces blanched slivered almonds
  • 0.25 cup sesame seeds
  • 5 slices bacon
  • 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (such as Ac'cent®)
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 heads leaf lettuce - rinsed, dried and torn into bite-size pieces
  • 1 cup chow mein noodles
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
  • Lay out the almonds and sesame seeds on a baking sheet without greasing it.
  • Bake the almonds in the preheated oven until they turn golden brown, about 8 minutes. Let them cool completely. While the almonds are cooling, cook the bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, cool, and crumble.
  • Fry the bacon in a spacious skillet over medium-high heat until crispy and golden, approximately 10 minutes. Place the cooked bacon on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess grease and cool down before crumbling.
  • Prepare the dressing by vigorously shaking sugar, vinegar, monosodium glutamate, vegetable oil, and garlic in a sealed glass jar until well combined. In a bowl, mix cooled almonds, sesame seeds, crumbled bacon, lettuce, and chow mein noodles. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat evenly.
