Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup raspberries
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 small head radicchio, chopped
1 small head escarole, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 fennel, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup pitted mixed olives, coarsely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons toasted white sesame seeds
3/4 cup raspberries

Steps:

  • For the dressing: To the pitcher of a high-speed blender add the raspberries, olive oil, Dijon mustard, vinegar and salt. Puree on high for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides halfway through, until emulsified. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, toss together the radicchio, escarole, fennel and salt. Begin by adding half the dressing and tossing well to coat. Taste the salad to determine if it needs more dressing. Depending on the size of your lettuces it may take all the dressing. Divide the salad among 4 salad bowls and top evenly with the olives, sesame seeds and raspberries.

I'm not usually a fan of escarole, but this salad has changed my mind. It's so refreshing and flavorful.

The raspberry dressing is the perfect complement to the bitter escarole.

This is one of my favorite salads to make during the summer when escarole is in season.
