Green Leaf Salad With Fennel Apple And Pecans Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, salt and pepper. Slowly drizzle in oil, continuously whisking, until dressing is emulsified. Taste and add more lemon juice and/or salt if needed.
• In a large bowl, toss the dressing with fennel, apple and celery. Fold in fennel fronds or parsley and walnuts. Top with Parmesan just before serving.

Steps:

• Combine the vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium size bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Mix the lettuce and radicchio in a salad bowl. Just before serving pour on the dressing and toss.
• Divide the salad among 4 salad plates. Place 3 apples slices on one side of each salad, and one quarter of the fennel on the other side. Sprinkle the pecans all over the salads.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the lemon juice, vinegar and mustard. Gradually whisk in the oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Add the fennel fronds and apple and season with salt and pepper and toss. Garnish with blue cheese and pecans and serve right away.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fill a bowl with ice water; set aside. Spread pecans on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until fragrant and crisp, 8 to 10 minutes; set aside. (Store up to two days in an airtight container.)
• Place 1/2 inch water in a large skillet with a lid. Bring to a boil; salt generously. Add green beans, cover skillet, and cook over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer immediately to ice water. Drain; pat dry with paper towels. (Cover and refrigerate up to 10 hours.)
• In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice and mustard; season with salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in oil. (Cover and refrigerate up to 10 hours.) To serve, combine all ingredients in a large bowl, and toss with dressing; garnish with fennel fronds, if desired.

Steps:

• In large bowl mix leaf salad greens and romaine lettuce. Leaving peeling on for color, cut apple and pears in bite-size pieces and add to greens.
• Add crumbled blue cheese and toasted pecans. Drizzle only enough vinaigrette dressing to moisten well. Toss well. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Add all ingredients for the Cider-Maple Vinaigrette to the bottom of your salad bowl. Whisk until blended. Set aside.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spread pecans on a rimmed cookie sheet. Place in preheated oven and cook, stirring once or twice, until fragrant and slightly browned, about 4 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
• If desired, in a small bowl, toss the apple matchsticks with the lemon juice. This will help prevent them from browning - see note below.
• Add lettuce, apples, and celery to the salad bowl. Toss until all of the greens are lightly coated with the dressing.
• Top with toasted pecans and serve.

Steps:

• Chop off the fronds where they meet the body of one fennel bulb.
• Halve the fennel then thinly slice using a mandoline or a very sharp chefs knife.
• Repeat with the other bulb.
• You should have 2 cups of sliced fennel. Set them aside.
• chop one tablespoon of the fronds and set them aside also.
• Put the fennel and the apple into a mixing bowl.
• Add the pecorino romano, lemon zest, 1/4 cup of olive oil and parsley.
• Toss gently, taste and season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the salad on a large, chilled serving platter.
• Drizzle more olive oil generously over the top, and scatter with the fronds just before serving.
