Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For dressing, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper to taste. Set aside. Cook bacon in a skillet over moderate heat, turning over occasionally, until just crisp. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and toast in upper third of oven about 6 minutes, until light golden brown. Place one goat cheese slice on each toasted baguette, top with 2 bacon pieces. Place in small oven-safe dish and broil until cheese softens, being careful not to burn bacon, about 2 minutes. To assemble: Heap a bed of baby greens on 2 small plates; drizzle with dressing. Place 2 baguettes with cheese and bacon on each salad.
Tips:
- Use ripe and flavorful tomatoes for the best taste. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they are meaty and have few seeds.
- If you don't have a grill, you can roast the tomatoes in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and roast the tomatoes for 20-25 minutes, or until they are slightly charred and softened.
- For a more intense flavor, use a flavored olive oil, such as garlic or basil olive oil.
- If you are using goat cheese, make sure it is fresh and creamy. Goat cheese that is too old or crumbly will not melt well.
- Serve the salad immediately after it is assembled. The goat cheese will start to melt and lose its shape if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Salade de Chevre Chaud is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for a summer meal. The combination of sweet tomatoes, creamy goat cheese, and tangy balsamic vinegar is sure to please everyone at the table. This salad is also a great way to use up any leftover tomatoes you may have from your garden.
