Morgan's Waldorf Salad image

The idea of Waldorf salad was unappealing to me for years. So I experimented with ingredients a bit and finally found a recipe that's incredibly delicious! This is my own spin on the traditional Waldorf salad. The ingredients crisp, filling, and bursting with juicy flavor. Perfect for hot summer days when you don't feel like firing up the stove.

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon safflower or grapeseed oil
1/2 cup whole-wheat pearl couscous
Kosher salt
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup safflower or grapeseed oil
1 large Gala apple, cored and cut into 1/4-to- 1/2-inch dice
1 small fennel bulb, chopped into 1/4-to- 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup small green seedless grapes, halved
3/4 cup walnut pieces, toasted
6 outer leaves from a large radicchio

Steps:

  • Make the couscous: In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the couscous and toast until lightly golden, about 4 minutes. Add 3/4 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Lower the heat so the water simmers; cover the pan and cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Uncover the pan and set aside to cool.
  • Make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, honey, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the oil.
  • Make the salad: In a large bowl, toss together the apple, fennel, grapes, walnuts and couscous. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad, tossing until coated.
  • Put 1 radicchio leaf on each plate. Spoon the salad into each leaf, allowing some to spill over.

CHEF JOHN'S WALDORF SALAD



Chef John's Waldorf Salad image

A fruit salad has to be pretty darn good to actually get a name, and the venerable Waldorf salad is certainly worthy. Embellish this as you see fit, but I really like it best with just the four ingredients seen here. Things like dried cranberries can add a nice seasonal touch but, for me, the chewy fruit gets in the way of that addictive crunchy/crisp texture.

This is a variation of the classic salad with apples, grapes, celery and nuts. If you aren't a walnut fan, pecans make an excellent substitute. Creamy salad dressing can be substituted for mayonnaise.
