Green Salad with Apple Dressing and Camembert Toasts

4.0

(12)

Apples are one of the culinary symbols of Normandy, and Camembert cheese is one of its great man-made products. There is a season for Camembert, too: In September and October, it is at its buttery, flavorful peak. Present this salad French style, after the main course. For dessert, pick up some pastries from the bakery.

Recipe information

Ingredients

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons walnut oil
1 large Red Delicious apple, cored, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

8 cups mixed salad greens (such as curly endive, romaine and radicchio; about 5 ounces)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Whisk vinegar and oil in large bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in apple. Let apple marinate at room temperature 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
