WATERCRESS, ROCKET, SWEET PEAR, WALNUT AND PARMESAN SALAD

Steps:

  • What a pukka combination, simple and classy. Don't try to make this when you feel like it, make it when you can buy perfect pears, otherwise it will taste naff. For 1 person I normally use around 1/2 a pear, 2 big handfuls of watercress and 2 big handfuls of rocket. If the pear skins are nice I just give them a wash, if not I remove them with a peeler. Then cut them in 1/2 and deseed. It doesn't really matter how you cut them up. Sometimes in big rough chunks, maybe sliced up or even grated. Then place into a bowl with the watercress and rocket. The pepperiness of the leaves works so well with the sweetness of the pear. Drizzle with good extra-virgin olive oil just to coat, a small squeeze of lemon juice (because the pear juice is slightly acidic but very tasty), and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss all this together and serve. Shave over Parmesan or pecornio, crumble your nuts over and tuck in. I love this salad with roasted meat or as a starter on its own.

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the vinaigrette:
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon-style prepared mustard
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
coarse salt
freshly ground pepper
For the salad:
1 regular size bag (your choice) prepared salad greens
Note: The original recipe calls for 2 heads of butter or leaf lettuce, or a mixture of red and green lettuces, washed, dried and torn into 1″ pieces. To make this recipe even quicker for busy, home cooks to prepare, try the pre-washed, bagged lettuces. I used a mixture called Heart's Delight, a combination of romaine, green leaf and butter lettuce hearts, and found it perfectly acceptable.
3-4 fresh pears, either French Butter, d'Anjou or Comice, peeled and cut into 1/4″ wide slices
Note: To prevent the peeled, pear slices from browning, I quickly swished them in fresh lemon juice and set aside.
a 5 ounce package (or container) of crumbled Gorgonzola
Note: If you're not a fan of blue cheeses, feta cheese would work nicely and be a great, salty substitute.
1/2 cup walnut halves or pieces, lightly toasted
Note: To lightly toast walnut pieces, warm walnuts in a small frying pan with no added butter or oil. Cook over a medium to medium-high heat, tossing the nuts often until they are just lightly browned. If nuts should burn, toss them in the trash bin and begin again.
Optional - dried cranberries &/or dried cherries for extra color, flavor and texture
Note: Unfortunately I was so busy preparing dinner that I didn't think to add dried cranberries or cherries until AFTER the salad was served. Let my omission be your gain.

Steps:

  • Mix together
