Salad of Bitter Leaves with Candied Walnuts, Gorgonzola and Pear
Antony Worrall Thompson from Food and Drink Fruit, Vegetables & Salads Serves 4 Preparation Time 10 to 30 mins Cooking Time 10 to 30 mins 115g/4oz granulated sugar 120ml/4fl oz orange juice 115g/4oz walnut halves 2.5g/ 1/2 tsp salt 2.5g/ 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper 2 tbsp walnut oil 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 10g / 2 tsp Dijon mustard 2 tbsp white wine vinegar 1 radicchio, split into separate leaves 55g/2oz wild rocket 2 heads chicory, split into separate leaves 2 conference pears 175g / 6 oz gorgonzola Place the sugar and the orange juice in a saucepan and stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and keep boiling until the syrup has reached a golden brown colour. Take off the heat and stir in the walnuts, salt and cayenne. Place the walnuts onto a non-stick baking sheet using two warm wet spoons to prevent sticking. Allow to cool completely. In a small bowl whisk together the walnut oil, olive oil, mustard and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. In a large bowl toss together the rocket, radicchio and chicory with most of the dressing, reserving 2 tbsp. Cut the pears into quarters, core, cut into thin slices and toss with the remaining dressing. Arrange the salad leaves on a large serving dish, scatter over the pears and walnuts and crumble over the gorgonzola. Serve immediately. -- Rec.food.recipes is moderated by Patricia Hill at .
