Recipe for Roasted Fig Salad with Warm Walnut Gorgonzola Dressing
Richard Brosseau
Ingredients:
- 16 dried Figs, each cut into 3 pieces
- 8 oz Gorgonzola Cheese
- 6 oz whole Walnuts
- 4 oz Olive Oil
- 2 oz Balsamic Vinegar
- 1 oz dry White Wine
- 6 bunches mixed baby greens (I would interpret this as about 6 cups)
- 1/2 head Radicchio
- 2 heads Belgian Endive
- 16 Flambouyant Leaves (if you live in a tropical area this is possible otherwise I'd say this is optional - salads are really loose)
Procedure:
- Mix first 5 ingredients and spread in shallow baking pan.
- Roast in 400 degree oven for 6 minutes.
- Remove tray from oven and deglaze with wine.
- Clean and rinse lettuce in ice water. Drain and dry well.
- Assemble lettuce on plates (four of them is the recommended number) and
divide figs and dressing among them evenly.
