Time 15m

Yield 5 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup golden raisins
1 1/2 cups raw hazelnuts
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon orange blossom water
2 teaspoons honey
Kosher salt
1/4 cup olive oil
8 ounces strawberries (about 12 medium), thinly sliced
9 fresh or dried figs, quartered
1/2 cup dried Turkish apricots, thinly sliced
5 ounces spring mix

Steps:

  • Cover the raisins with hot water in a small bowl and let stand until plump, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, toast the hazelnuts in a large pan over medium-high heat, shaking the pan frequently, until the skins begin to fall off and the nuts are toasted, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and coarsely chop. Set aside.
  • Mix the white wine vinegar, orange blossom water, honey and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until emulsified. Add the strawberries, figs, apricots, spring mix, hazelnuts, raisins and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the bowl and toss until well combined. Serve immediately.
