Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 egg white
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, more to taste
2/3 cup light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons Passover wine, ruby port or grape juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch cayenne (optional)
1 pound walnut halves
1 small shallot, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 apples, cored and thinly sliced
2 large or 3 small endive heads, thinly sliced crosswise into rounds
3 cups arugula, packed
Black pepper and flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 300 degrees. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick liner or parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together egg white and 1/2 teaspoon salt until frothy. Whisk in sugar, wine, cinnamon and cayenne (if desired) until smooth. Add nuts and toss until they are well coated with egg mixture.
  • Spread nuts on baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. The nuts should be glazed and golden at the edges. Let cool. Coarsely chop 1 cup of the nuts (save the rest for noshing).
  • Prepare the salad: In a large bowl, combine shallot, vinegar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and toss well. Let sit for 10 minutes, then whisk in olive oil. Add apples, and toss to coat.
  • Put endive and arugula in a salad bowl. Add apple mixture and chopped nuts, and toss well. Season to taste with more salt and black pepper, and serve at once.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out bland. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to make it palatable.

I've never been a fan of endive, but this salad changed my mind. The dressing was perfectly balanced and the walnuts added a nice crunch.
