A very inexpensive salad. Dandelion leaves, flowers, and roots are all edible if you have an organic yard or store buy! Dandelion is a bitter green.

Categories     Salad     Leafy Green     Mustard     Side     Bake     Dinner     Salad Dressing     Butternut Squash     Fall     Winter     Honey     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Soy Free

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 medium African or small butternut squash
2 Moonglow or Asian pears, cored, peeled, and diced (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup (about 12) chestnuts
10 shallots, peeled
1/3 pound (about 2 bunches) tender komatsuna leaves or fresh spinach, torn
1/3 pound (about 2 heads) tatsoi, torn
1/3 pound (about 2 bunches) mustard greens, torn
For the Vinaigrette
8 ounces bacon, diced
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons local honey
1/4 cup Champagne vinegar
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup canola oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Peel the squash: First cut into two cross sections, scrape out the seeds, and place the squash, flat side down, on a cutting board. Work around the squash with a sharp knife or peeler, making sure to remove the layer of lighter colored flesh under the skin as well as the skin. Dice into 1/2-inch cubes to make about 1 cup (reserve any leftovers for another use).
  • Arrange the diced squash and pears on a baking sheet and toss with the oil. Roast until browned, about 20 minutes; set aside at room temperature.
  • Make a cross slit on the rounded end of each chestnut with a sharp paring knife. Place on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes, or until the cut sections on the bottoms of the nuts just start to curl. Peel the chestnuts as soon as they are cool enough to handle, as they will peel the easiest when hot. Cut into quarters and set aside.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Wrap the shallots in parchment paper and then in aluminum foil. Bake until tender and slightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Once the shallots are cool enough to handle, chop coarsely and set aside.
  • To make the vinaigrette: In a large sauté pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy; transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and reserve the fat in the pan. Once the fat has cooled slightly, strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a measuring cup that has a spout. in a blender or food processor, combine the mustard, honey, vinegar, thyme, and pepper and blend for 30 seconds. Slowly add the strained warm bacon fat and the oil through the cap of the blender or the feed tube of a food processor, blending until thoroughly combined Pour the vinaigrette into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the squash and pears, chestnuts, shallots, bacon, komatsuna, tatsoi, and mustard greens to the mixing bowl and toss with the warm vinaigrette. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To ensure your mustard greens are not bitter, choose young, tender leaves. If the leaves are mature, remove the tough stems before cooking.
  • Bacon adds a delicious smoky flavor to the salad, but you can omit it if you prefer a vegetarian dish.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of vinegar and sugar in the dressing to suit your taste.
  • For a more flavorful salad, use a variety of mustard greens, such as Red Giant, Green Wave, and Southern Giant Curled.
  • If you don't have shallots on hand, you can use a small onion instead.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Wilted Mustard Greens Salad with Bacon is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It's packed with nutrients and has a wonderful balance of flavors. The slightly bitter greens are complemented by the sweet dressing, smoky bacon, and crunchy walnuts. This salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
