Salad Ingredients

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Kale

    Wash and remove the stems from the Tuscan kale. Tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Char the Grapes

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the grapes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the grapes until they are slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Toast the Sourdough

    In a pan, add the sourdough bread and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toast over medium heat until golden and crispy, about 5 minutes. Let cool, then crumble into pieces.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    Add the charred grapes, pickled cranberries, and crumbled Pecorino cheese to the kale. Drizzle with the herb-mustard dressing (store-bought or homemade) and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Finish and Serve

    Top the salad with the sourdough crumble and additional Pecorino if desired. Serve immediately.
