Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 heaping tablespoon minced shallot
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 baguette, cut into 1/2-inch slices
4 cups frisee (3 to 4 ounces)
1 cup walnut halves (3 ounces), toasted
1 Granny Smith apple, thinly sliced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
8 ounces Bucheron or other soft goat cheese
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Make the dressing: Whisk together vinegar, shallot, mustard, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Add oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified.
  • Make the salad: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place baguette slices on a baking sheet, and toast until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss together frisee, walnuts, and apple in a large bowl. Add dressing, and toss. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a serving platter.
  • Preheat broiler. Place cheese, cut side up, on a second baking sheet, and drizzle with oil. Broil until top is browned and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes. Place on platter. Serve with baguette toasts.

This salad was a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just personal preference. The dressing is really good though.
