Green Salad with Dracula’s Teeth
Notes: Up to 1 day ahead, rinse and crisp greens, seed pomegranate, and make dressing; cover separately and chill. To seed pomegranate (use an 8- to 9-oz. one), cut in half crosswise. Around the cut edge of each half, make 4 equally spaced vertical cuts, 3/4 to 1 inch long and deep. Hold 1 half, seeds down, over a deep bowl and pull the fruit open but not apart, using equal pressure from both hands. Holding the pomegranate half, seeds down, in the palm of 1 hand, whack the top of the fruit with the back of a large spoon several times; the seeds will fall out.
