Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 cups finely julienned endive (store in cold water to prevent oxidation)
1/2 cup julienned peeled green apples
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/2 cup finely julienned red onions
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon leaves
1/4 cup Soy-Sherry Vinaigrette, recipe follows
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup sherry vinegar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon chopped shallots
1 egg yolk
1 cup grapeseed oil
Freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the endive, apples, blue cheese, onions, walnuts and tarragon in a medium mixing bowl. Add the Soy-Sherry Vinaigrette (use as much or as little as desired) and season with salt and pepper.
  • Puree the sherry vinegar, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, shallots and egg yolk in a blender. With the motor running, emulsify the oil into the mixture. Season with black pepper (the salt from the soy will be enough to season the vinaigrette).
