Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    Begin by washing the endive and radicchio thoroughly under cold water. Remove any wilted outer leaves. Slice the endive and radicchio thinly and place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Arugula

    Add the arugula to the bowl with the endive and radicchio. Gently toss the greens together until well combined.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Other Ingredients

    Sprinkle the pomegranate seeds, crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, and candied walnuts over the top of the salad. Set aside while you prepare the dressing.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 4

    Mix the Dressing Ingredients

    In a small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and honey until emulsified.

  2. 5

    Season the Dressing

    Add salt and black pepper to the dressing to taste, and mix well to combine.

  3. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the dressing over the prepared salad just before serving. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
