Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Poach the Pears

    In a medium saucepan, bring water to a simmer. Add the pears and a pinch of salt. Poach for about 10-15 minutes or until tender. Remove and let cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Pecans

    In a skillet over medium heat, toast the pecans for about 5 minutes until golden and fragrant. Stir frequently to prevent burning.

  3. 3

    Slice the Radishes

    Thinly slice the radishes and set aside.

  4. 4

    Make the Dressing

    In a bowl, whisk together buttermilk, mayonnaise, dill, chives, garlic, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the artisan greens, sliced radishes, and toasted pecans. Slice the poached pears and add them to the salad. Drizzle with buttermilk herb dressing and toss gently to combine.
