Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (11-ounce) log plain or herbed Montrachet
2 extra-large egg whites, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Fresh white bread crumbs
2 tablespoons good cider vinegar
2 tablespoons good Champagne vinegar
Pinch sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 extra-large egg yolk
1 cup good olive oil
Enough mixed salad greens for 6 servings
Olive oil and unsalted butter, for frying

Steps:

  • Slice the Montrachet into 12 (1/2-inch-thick) slices. (The easiest way to slice goat cheese is to use a length of dental floss.) Dip each slice into the beaten egg whites, then the bread crumbs, being sure the cheese is thoroughly coated. Place the slices on a rack and chill them for at least 15 minutes.
  • For the dressing, place the vinegars, sugar, salt, pepper, and egg yolk in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and blend for 1 minute. With the motor running, slowly pour the olive oil through the feed tube until the vinaigrette is thickened. Season, to taste.
  • Toss the salad greens with enough dressing to moisten, then divide them among 6 plates.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium-high heat until just under smoking. Cook the goat cheese rounds quickly on both sides until browned on the outside but not melted inside. Top each salad with 2 warm rounds and serve.

Even simple mesclun greens deserve special attention: These get an easy Dijon-mustard vinaigrette and toasted baguette slices topped with melted goat cheese.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
6 ounces (about 6 cups) mesclun greens, washed and spun dry
1 baguette, cut into 12 slices, each about 1/4 inch thick
8 ounces soft goat cheese, cut into 12 slices, each about 1/4 inch thick

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk vinegar with mustard. Slowly add oil in a steady stream, whisking constantly. Season with salt and pepper. Place greens in a large bowl.
  • Meanwhile, heat broiler. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet; top each with a goat cheese round. Toast until bread is golden brown and cheese has started to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. Drizzle greens with vinaigrette; toss to combine. Divide among four plates. Place three toasts on each salad. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To ensure the goat cheese is warm and melted, bring it to room temperature before assembling the salad.
  • Slice the baguette on the bias for a more elegant presentation.
  • Drizzle the baguette slices with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help to create a crispy, flavorful crust.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can toast the baguette slices in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and toast the baguette slices for 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • To make the salad dressing, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and salt and pepper. You can also add a touch of garlic or herbs, if desired.
  • Assemble the salad by placing the mixed greens on a plate. Top with the grilled baguette slices, warm goat cheese, grilled peaches, and walnuts. Drizzle with the salad dressing and serve immediately.

Conclusion:

This warm goat cheese salad with grilled olive bread is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of warm, melted goat cheese, grilled peaches, and crispy baguette slices is sure to please everyone at your table.
