APPLE GORGONZOLA SALAD



Apple Gorgonzola Salad image

I recreated this at home after having a very similar salad at Buca di Beppo (an Italian family style restaurant). Ingredient amounts are approximate, because I simply toss in the amount that "looks" right. But, the combination of ingredients are soooo good. I think even the most inexperienced can throw this together without explicit instructions... :) Oh, for the Spiced Walnuts, try something similar to Chef #159145' Recipe #139127.

APPLE, ENDIVE & GORGONZOLA SALAD



Apple, Endive & Gorgonzola Salad image

This recipe from Gourmet Magazine (October 1998) makes a wonderfully simple and delicious winter salad. The dressing is fabulous and you may want to try it on other salads. (Also, this makes a lightly dressed salad, some may want to double the dressing. Cut the apple soon before serving so that it does not brown. You can also try this with raw (untoasted) or candied nuts. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup walnuts or 1/4 cup pecans
3 Belgian endive
1 granny smith apple
1/4 cup crumbled gorgonzola (about 1 ounce)
1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
2 1/2 teaspoons honey
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a shallow baking pan toast walnuts in middle of oven until fragrant, about 10 minutes, and cool. Chop walnuts.
  • In a small bowl whisk together vinegars and 1/2 teaspoon honey and add oil in a stream, whisking until emulsified. Season dressing with salt and pepper.
  • Separate 4 outer leaves from each endive and arrange 3 leaves on each of 4 plates. Cut remaining endive crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices and put in a large bowl. Peel apple and using a mandoline or other manual slicer cut thin slices lengthwise from 4 sides, stopping just before core. Make small stacks of slices and cut stacks into thin julienne strips.
  • Toss sliced endive with dressing and divide among plates, mounding on whole leaves. Top salads with Gorgonzola, walnuts, apple, chives, and salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle remaining 2 teaspoons honey over salads.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe, in-season apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady are all good choices.
  • To prevent the apples from browning, toss them in a bowl with a little lemon juice or vinegar.
  • If you don't have any red wine vinegar, you can use white wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar instead.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to your salad, such as nuts, seeds, or dried fruit.
  • Serve the salad immediately after dressing it, so the greens don't get wilted.

Conclusion:

Apple gorgonzola salad with red wine vinaigrette is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover apples, and it's also a healthy and refreshing option. With its sweet, tart, and savory flavors, this salad is sure to please everyone at your table.
