Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 small radicchio, leaves separated and torn into small pieces
2 heads Belgian endive, leaves separated and torn into small pieces
1 small frisee, tough stems removed and torn into small pieces
1 bunch rocket, torn into small pieces (or roka)
1 tart green apple, such as granny smith,peel left on,thinly sliced
1 sweet red apple, such as fuji,peel left on,thinly sliced
1/2 cup walnut halves, toasted
2 cups parmesan cheese, curls (or more)
2 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar or 2 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil or 1/2 cup walnut oil, plus
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or 1 tablespoon walnut oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Have previously washed your lettuces and spun dry, or put in a large, clean pillow case and swung over your head for a few seconds (this really works! The centrifugal force gets the water off the leaves and the pillow case absorbs it- don't let anyone see you doing this- they'll think you're insane).
  • Whisk together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Combine the lettuces in a large bowl and toss well.
  • Add the apples and nuts and drizzle with the dressing.
  • Toss again.
  • Using a vegetable peeler or sharp paring knife, shave curls off if a wedge of parmesan over the top (be generous!).
  • Serve at once as the lettuce will start to wilt with time.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I often make it the night before and then just toss it with the dressing before serving.

The salad was good, but the Parmesan cheese curls were a bit too hard. I think I would have preferred to use grated Parmesan cheese instead.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred to use a different type of apple, such as a Granny Smith.
