1/2 cup excellent olive oil
1/4 cup tarragon vinegar, or any nice light vinegar you have
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 clove minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
1 torn head of butter lettuce
1/4 pound finely shredded good quality Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 pound sliced mushrooms of your choice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
a splash of dry vermouth or white wine

1
Put salad plates in the freezer and the forks in the refrigerator for an hour or so. (Really! It will make a difference)
2
Shake oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic, tarragon, and salt and pepper in a screw top jar and adjust seasoning to taste.
3
Toss together well dried lettuce and shredded cheese and keep chilled until ready
4
Just before serving, toss the dressing with salad, mixing well. Plate the tossed salad and get everyone to the table.
5
Quickly saute mushrooms in butter in a hot skillet ...by now we all know not to crowd them...until nicely browned (almost cripy edged) and then deglaze the pan with a splash of wine.
6
While the mushrooms are still sizzling hot, spoon them over the salad so the hot mushrooms begin to melt the cheese and serve immediately.
