Ingredients
- 3 heads endive
- 1 large apple
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a dry skillet over medium heat and toast the walnuts for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant and lightly browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside to cool.
Step 2
Trim the ends of the endive heads and gently separate the leaves. Rinse them under cold water, pat dry with a paper towel, and arrange them in a large salad bowl or platter.
Step 3
Core the apple and slice it into thin wedges. To prevent browning, toss the apple slices with lemon juice in a small bowl.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl or jar, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the vinaigrette. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 5
Scatter the toasted walnuts and apple slices over the endive leaves.
Step 6
Drizzle the Dijon vinaigrette evenly over the salad, ensuring all components are lightly coated.
Step 7
Serve immediately and enjoy this crisp, nutty, and tangy endive salad with apple and walnuts.
