Steps:
- Make dressing:
- Chop shallot and crush star anise. In a blender blend shallot, oil, orange juice, and Port until emulsified. Transfer mixture to a small bowl or jar and add star anise and salt and pepper to taste. Chill dressing, covered, at least 4 hours and up to 1 day. Pour dressing through a sieve into a bowl and discard solids. Whisk dressing until combined well.
- Make salad:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Halve and core pears. Cut pears lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices and arrange in one layer on baking sheet. Roast pears in middle of oven until pale golden, about 10 minutes, and cool on baking sheet.
- Separate endive leaves, and, if desired, cut leaves crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-thick pieces.
- On a platter or 4 salad plates arrange pears, endive leaves, and Stilton and drizzle dressing on top. Garnish salad with parsley or chervil.
Tips
- Use ripe pears. The riper the pear, the sweeter and more flavorful it will be in your salad.
- Choose a good quality cheese. Stilton and Asiago are both excellent choices for this salad, but you can also use other types of blue cheese or hard cheese, such as Gorgonzola or Parmesan.
- Toast the walnuts. Toasting the walnuts will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use a light dressing. A simple vinaigrette or lemon dressing is all you need to dress this salad. A heavy dressing will overpower the delicate flavors of the pears and cheese.
- Serve the salad immediately. This salad is best enjoyed fresh, so don't make it ahead of time.
Conclusion
Pear and Stilton or Asiago salad is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. The combination of sweet pears, salty cheese, crunchy walnuts, and tangy dressing is simply irresistible. This salad is also a great way to use up any leftover pears you may have.
