How to Make Wicklewood's Pear And Roquefort Salad

  1. Peel, core, and thinly slice 2 ripe but firm pears. Toss immediately with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to prevent browning.
  2. Arrange 4 cups of mixed salad greens on two serving plates.
  3. Top the greens with the pear slices.
  4. Crumble 4 ounces of Roquefort cheese (or other sharp blue cheese) over the pears.
  5. Scatter 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts (or pecans) over the salad.
  6. In a small screw-top jar, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  7. Seal the jar and shake well to emulsify the vinaigrette.
  8. Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving.
