This is one of my favorite salads. To me, the walnut oil is essential. Delicious with a sharp cheddar.
Delicious, though I used less than half the dressing.
This recipe superior to the alternative that contains dijon mustard in the dressing. Dijon mustard muddies the taste and gives salad a yellowish cast. I have made this salad at least 4 times. I find that simply adding extra vinegar, or white wine or white wine vinegar, brightens the taste. At times I have bathed the jjulienned apple in lime or lemon juice, which also brightens the taste. Mustard is just wrong!
