Festive Winter Salad Recipes
FESTIVE WINTER SALAD
A basic green salad with some very special ingredients- pomegranate seeds, Gorgonzola cheese, toasted pistachios, and a raspberry vinaigrette. I got the inspiration from recipe #109382, but I changed so much that I decided to post a new recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Steps:
- Combine the vinegar, oil, honey, salt and pepper in a medium bowl, and whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning, and add more salt or pepper if needed.
- Place half of the lettuce on each of two salad plates.
- Scatter the pomegranate seeds, pistachios, and cheese over each plate.
- Drizzle with the dressing, and serve immediately.
- Note: dressing can be made ahead, but will probably separate while sitting and need to be mixed again before serving.

- EXTRACT POMEGRANATE SEEDS. Roll pomegranate on counter to loosen seeds. Cut pomegranate in half. Taking the first half, hold pomegranate seed side down over a bowl. Smack the outside with a wooden spoon (hard!) to release the seeds. Repeat with the other half. Alternatively, try this other option from Cooks Illustrated. You will get about 1 to 1 1/4 cups or a bit more from 1 Pomegranate. Note 2 to store unused seeds.
- MAKE VINAIGRETTE DRESSING: Combine all ingredients in a jar or sealed container. Shake well until smooth and emulsified. Alternatively, whisk all ingredients together except oil. Slowly add a stream of oil while whisking until smooth.
- ASSEMBLE WINTER SALAD: If your little Gem lettuce is whole, cut off bottom 1/2 inch and cut in half. Lay out lettuce on platter. Drizzle dressing - you won't need in all. Scatter pistachios, pears and pomegranate seeds evenly over lettuce. Add little 1 tsp clumps of ricotta if desired. Serve immediately.
