When most people think of salads, wintertime usually isn’t the first season that comes to mind.
Humble winter vegetables and grains like wild rice and wheat berries are some of my favorite combinations, especially as a hearty salad when dressed with our sweet and tart Durant Pomegranate Vinegar and a healthy drizzle of Durant Mission EVOO.
Add your favorite toasted nuts or seeds for texture, in this case Oregon grown hazelnuts, and ample salty cheese like feta or an Italian Pecorino and you have a delicious, texturally pleasing and healthy salad.
~ Durant Culinary Director, Eric BartleWinter Radicchio Caesar SaladThis wintertime version features crisp winter radicchio, garlicky bread crumbs toasted in Durant Garlic Fused Olive Oil and then finished with ample shaved Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. With it’s bold notes of black pepper, artichoke and radicchio, I find the Durant Mission EVOO to be the perfect compliment to this Caesar dressing recipe and it pairs so nicely with the often under appreciated winter radicchios and chicories.
Enjoy this salad with a fillet of grilled wild salmon, alongside herb roasted chicken or just simply by itself!
