Spicy Green Salad with Manchego and Pears image

Provided by Ruth Cousineau

Categories     Salad     Cheese     Leafy Green     Vegetarian     Quick & Easy     Lunch     Pear     Fall     Winter     Seed     Gourmet

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup green (hulled) pumpkin seeds (pepitas; not toasted)
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
3 tablespoons Sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon mild honey
1 teaspoon grainy mustard
4 cups packed spicy salad greens, such as radish greens, watercress, and/or arugula, tough stems discarded
4 cups packed frisée (French curly endive), torn into bite-size pieces
1 (1/2-pound) piece Manchego cheese, rind removed and cheese shaved into 32 thin slices (preferably with a cheese plane)
8 small red or yellow Bartlett pears (preferably with stems)

Steps:

  • Cook seeds in 1 tablespoon oil in a small heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until puffed and beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels and reserve oil. Season seeds with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk together vinegar, honey, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Add remaining 1/3 cup olive oil and reserved oil from skillet in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified.
  • Divide greens and cheese among salad plates. Cut off 2 opposite sides of each pear (reserve for another use), leaving a 1/2-inch-thick lengthwise center slice with stem and core. Arrange a pear slice on each plate and drizzle dressing over salads. Sprinkle with seeds.

HONEY-ROASTED PEAR SALAD WITH THYME AND VERJUS DRESSING



Honey-Roasted Pear Salad With Thyme and Verjus Dressing image

An elegant and sophisticated salad that makes good use of verjus (verjuice) in the dressing. I use a local blue cheese, such as Roquefort in this salad; however, please do use a local blue cheese of your choice - any creamy or robust blue cheese will marry well with the pears and tart dressing. Verjuice, or verjus, is the juice of unripe grapes. This staple of French provincial cooking, a key ingredient in Dijon mustard, has the tartness of lemon juice and the acidity of vinegar, but the harshness of neither. Its delicate flavour is ideal for everything from stocks to sweet syrups - as long as you know what you're doing. Verjus was also a common ingredient used in English cooking throughout the Middle Ages. I try to make a batch of verjus every year with the green grapes from my non-dessert grape vine - as I love cooking with it. This recipe came from an old copy of Bon Appetit magazine from 2005. Prep time includes the time it takes the pears to cool.

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup verjus or 3 tablespoons white grape juice and 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup grapeseed oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
3 bunches fresh thyme sprigs
4 ripe but firm bartlett pears, halved, cored (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup honey
1 head butter lettuce, coarsely torn
4 ounces baby rocket or 4 ounces arugula
6 ounces blue cheese, coarsely crumbled
1/2 cup hazelnuts, toasted, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • For the dressing:.
  • Whisk all ingredients in small bowl to blend. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper.
  • For the pears and salad:.
  • Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F Scatter thyme sprigs on a baking sheet. Place pear halves, cut side down, on work surface. Starting 1/2 inch from stem and leaving pear half intact, cut each lengthwise into scant 1/3- to 1/2-inch-wide slices. Press pear gently to fan slices; place on top of the thyme sprigs. Drizzle pears with honey; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until pears are tender, about 15 minutes. Let stand on baking sheet at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours.
  • To serve.
  • Combine lettuce and rocket/arugula in large bowl. Add dressing and toss to coat. Divide salad among plates. Place pear alongside greens. Garnish salads with cheese; sprinkle with the hazelnuts and fresh thyme.

ROASTED PEAR SALAD



Roasted Pear Salad image

You can roast just about any kind of pear, but for this recipe I prefer the smaller and harder Seckel pears. Once roasted, they'll soften and become surprisingly sweet and floral, a perfect contrast to the salty blue cheese and slightly bitter endive.

Provided by Food Network

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 ripe pears, halved and cored
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons sugar
Salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup pecan oil
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon Creole mustard
1 shallot, minced
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 heads Belgian endive, cored and leaves separated
2 handfuls mixed bitter green leaves
2 cups blue cheese, crumbled into chunks
1/2 cup pecans, toasted

Steps:

  • For the pears, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a small bowl, drizzle the pears with the olive oil, sprinkle with the sugar and salt, and toss to coat well. Transfer the pears to a baking sheet and roast for 10 minutes, until golden brown. Allow to cool.
  • For the vinaigrette, whisk together the olive oil, pecan oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, and shallots in a small mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • To assemble the salad, combine the endive leaves and bitter greens in a large serving bowl. Add the vinaigrette and toss to coat well. Wait until just before serving to top with the pears, blue cheese, and pecans.

ZESTY RANCH CHICKEN PASTA SALAD #RSC



Zesty Ranch Chicken Pasta Salad #RSC image

Ready, Set, Cook! Hidden Valley Contest Entry. One day I was looking for something new to do with pasta salad. I entire family loves pasta salad so I wanted something special also. Now I do not like Ranch Salad dressing however I absolutely love the Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning packet. I have used it on potatoes, on chicken and many other ways. I decided why not add it to a light pasta salad. So my recipe was made, eaten and enjoyed. The best thing besides the taste of this Chicken Pasta Salad is how versatile you can make it. Do not like spinach, omit, substitute...no problem. Want to use beef or tofu...no problem. It is easy to make it your own. I know your family will love it too.

RSC#11 - SALAD WITH A LIME DRESSING



Rsc#11 - Salad With a Lime Dressing image

A flavour packed salad with a refreshing zesty sweet lime dressing. Roasted sweet potatoes, baby spinach leaves, sun-dried tomatoes, feta cheese and crispy apple. Can be served as a light lunch with some crusty bread, as a side salad or as a meal with grilled or pan-fried chicken or seafood. Slice the apples and add the dressing close to serving time.UPDATE: I've left this recipe as it was entered to RSC#11. Feel free to vary the quantities of ingredients. AS we do not have key limes available in Australia-I used regular limes- perhaps key limes are tarter. I had fun making this recipe and being part of RSC.
