Make the Green Salad With Cheddar and Pickles Recipe From the Commodore | Eater

"A Lower East Side bar whose menu elevates classic bar food into standout dishes — think spicy chicken sandwiches, salsa-strewn nachos, and grilled pimento cheese — anchored by a green salad with cheddar and quick pickles that serves as a refreshing counterpart to the menu’s indulgence. The salad pairs tangy, earthy clothbound cheddar (which adds a touch of sweetness) with crunchy quick-pickled cucumbers that cut through a boatload of alliums and romaine; it can easily be modified with chicken or other additions, making it a versatile, simple recipe often described as a sleeper hit. Its bright, slightly tangy profile makes it a natural fit for birthday parties and celebratory nights, where the rest of the lineup tends toward hedonism." - Nat Belkov
