Pear Salad With Asian Dressing Food

ENDIVE AND PEAR SALAD

Steps:

• Clean the endive with a dry paper towel and slice off the bottom to separate the leaves. Arrange the leaves around the edge of a large platter. Fill the inside with torn romaine leaves. Cut the pear into thin slices and arrange throughout the platter. Sprinkle the gorgonzola and walnuts on top and season with pepper.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the jam and balsamic vinegar and heat for several seconds until warm. Stir with a small whisk. Drizzle the dressing over the salad.

PEAR VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Blend the pear, white wine, garlic, Dijon mustard, white balsamic vinegar, black pepper, and sea salt in a blender until well combined; drizzle the olive oil into the mixture in a thin, steady stream while continuing to blend. Blend a few seconds longer until the salad dressing is thick and creamy.

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.
