ARUGULA, PEAR & POMEGRANATE SALAD

Steps:

• 1. I definitely recommend making the vinaigrette a day or two before, it allows the flavors to really meld. I love making vinaigrettes in mason jars or the like, its just really easy. So go head and pour in the red wine vinegar, olive oil, chopped shallot, dried oregano, salt and a little pepper. Refrigerate.
• 2. To plate I used a shallow bowl, piled on a few big handfuls of the baby arugula, half a pears worth for each plate and a good sprinkling of the pomegranate seeds. Are the colors gorgeous together or what?!?!
• 3. Give the vinaigrette a good shaking to combine everything before serving and drizzle just a bit over top. Finish with fresh cracked pepper.

POMEGRANATE, ARUGULA SALAD

Steps:

• To make vinaigrette, combine molasses, lemon juice, honey and vinegar in a mixing bowl and whisk to combine. Slowly drizzle in olive oil while you whisk to emulsify. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

ARUGULA AND PEAR SALAD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce with the maple syrup. Add the pecans. Toss to coat and set aside to marinate for at least half an hour.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
• Remove pecans from the marinade, draining off and discarding the liquid. Place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 15 minutes, tossing the pecans halfway through to prevent them from burning.
• Remove from oven and as soon as they are cool enough to touch, but still warm, remove the caramelized pecans to a piece of parchment or wax paper to cool in a single layer so they don't clump. Set aside.
• Cut the pears in half lengthwise and remove seeds and core. Keep the peel on one of the halves, and cut this half into 18 very thin slices. Place the slices in a shallow bowl with 1⁄3 cup orange juice to prevent discoloration.
• Peel remaining 1 and 1/2 pears and cut into small dice. Place in another bowl with 1⁄3 cup orange juice.
• In a small bowl, whisk the pomegranate molasses, vinegar, oil, mustard, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• Separate the endive leaves. Stack them and then thinly slice them into julienned thin strips on the diagonal.
• Toss the endive and arugula greens with the dressing. Remove the diced pears from the orange juice and add the pears into the greens. Toss in some of the caramelized pecans, cranberries, and cheese, if using for a dairy meal.
• Lay three of the thinly sliced pear slices on each plate, add a handful of the dressed salad. Garnish with extra caramelized pecans.

ROASTED PEAR SALAD WITH ENDIVE, POMEGRANATE, BLUE CHEESE, AND HAZELNUT VINAIGRETTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Make the vinaigrette: Combine honey, vinegar, and hazelnuts in a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Place bowl on top of kitchen towel rolled into a ring to keep it steady, and slowly pour olive oil into bowl while whisking constantly. Vinaigrette should form a semi-stable emulsion. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then aside in the fridge.
• For the pears: Heat butter in a 12-inch heavy bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until foaming subsides. Add sugar and swirl until melted and starting to brown. Add pears and toss to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally until pears are softened but still retain some texture and exteriors are a burnished, glazy brown, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to a large plate and allow to cool completely.
• To serve: Combine endives, frisée, arugula, and pears in a large bowl and drizzle with 6 tablespoons vinaigrette. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently toss with hands until evenly coated with vinaigrette. Taste and add more vinaigrette or salt and pepper as necessary. Add cheese and pomegranate and toss briefly. Serve immediately.

POMEGRANATE & PEAR GREEN SALAD WITH GINGER DRESSING

Steps:

• To toast the pecans, place them in a skillet over medium heat. Toast, stirring often, until they're fragrant and starting to turn golden on the edges, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the pecans from the heat and roughly chop them (no need to chop if you started with pecan pieces). Set aside.
• Arrange the arugula across a large serving platter (or bowl, but the salad looks prettiest on a platter). Sprinkle the chopped pecans and crumbled goat cheese over the arugula. Fan out your slices of pear and apple and arrange them across the salad in sections (see photos). Sprinkle all over with fresh pomegranate arils.
• To prepare the dressing, combine all of the ingredients and whisk until blended. Taste, and if it isn't quite zippy enough, add another teaspoon of vinegar.
• Wait to dress the salad until you're ready to serve (the dressing will wilt the greens over time). When you're ready, drizzle the ginger dressing lightly all over the salad (you might not need all of it). Serve promptly.
