  3. **Prepare the Salad:** Julienne 2 heads of Belgian endive and 2 cored apples.
  4. **Assemble the Salad:** In a large bowl, gently combine the julienned endive, apples, candied walnuts, 4 ounces of crumbled Stilton cheese, and 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh tarragon.
  5. **Dress the Salad:** Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat. Season with additional salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste.
  6. **Serve:** Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Apple, Endive & Stilton Salad!
