Dressing:
In a large measuring cup, whisk all of the dressing ingredients
together to combine. Season with 3/4 ts salt and 1/2 ts pepper.
It will taste quite salty at this point, and that is intentional.
You want it to hold up when tossed with a big pile of vegetables.
Yield: 1-1/4 Cups
In a large shallow bowl or platter, toss the romaine with half of
the following ingredients: corn, radishes, avocado, sliced
scallions, Cotija, and cilantro. Season to taste with salt and
pepper. Add 1/2 cup dressing and toss to coat. Season again with
salt and pepper.
Top with the remaining corn, radishes, avocado, scallions, Cotija,
and cilantro, scattering the garnishes on top or arranging them in
stripes or piles. Sprinkle some crumbled tortilla chips on top, if
using. Drizzle the salad with an additional 1/4 cup dressing, and
serve immediately, serving any remaining dressing and additional
tortilla chips alongside.
