Steps:
- Using a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add in the 1 tablespoon butter and once it begins to melt add in the 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon water, and 1 cups walnuts.
- Stir continuously for about 5 minutes and transfer the candied walnuts to a parchment lined baking sheet in a single even layer and allow them to cool and harden, about 15 minutes.
- In a blender or food processor, add in the lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest, 1 clove of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and blend or pulse until the salad dressing is completely smooth.

PEAR-WALNUT SALAD WITH ARTISAN BLEU CHEESE
I used mixed greens, pears, honey and bleu cheese-all from Oregon sources in this salad. For alternate versions, try two different varieties of pears. For example, I tested Forelle and Anjou pears. Rogue Creamery artisan cheesemaker supplied the bleu cheese (in particular their Smokey Blue), too. A light dressing tops it off. From a local source. Makes 6 small dinner salads. A perfect salad for a brunch or light meal. Happy 2009!

WATERCRESS, PEAR, BLUE CHEESE AND WALNUT SALAD
This is a wonderful way to enjoy pears when they are flavoursome yet still firm and crisp. A lovely summer lunch or starter, the kind that is satisfying in the way that you don't need dessert and something to take your time over.

Steps:
- Whisk together all vinaigrette ingredients until well blended; set aside.
- In a small frying pan set on a medium heat, melt the butter, stir in the maple syrup or honey and then stir in the walnuts. Continue to heat the walnuts, stirring continuously, for approximately 2-3 minutes or until they are fragrant, caramelized and lightly browned. Remove from the heat; set aside.
- Place the greens in a large salad bowl or, if individual servings are preferred, distribute them equally among 6 salad plates. Sprinkle over the pears, blue cheese and walnuts. Place over chicken then drizzle with dressing and toss.
- Note: I find having the chicken warmed is superior to cold chicken.

CARAMELISED PEAR AND ROCKET (ARUGULA) SALAD WITH BLUE CHEESE
This is just so simple and easy to do but is full of flavour as well. I did use pine nuts when I made this and they worked out quite well. I would suggest a good robust blue for this or Gorgonzola.
